Expert Reply:
I was able to find online that others were able to flat-tow a Jeep J-10 so you can take that as you see fit but I do not have an official statement on this unless otherwise noted in your owner's manual. The process that others have used is as follows:
1: Unlock Hubs
2: Place Transmission In 1st Gear
3: Place Transfer Case In Neutral
4: Leave Steering Column Unlocked
The parts you will need to flat-tow the above are a tow bar, the Curt Tow Bar with Adjustable-Width Arms part # C19745 a lighting kit, the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights part # C6304 and safety cables, the Curt Single Hook Coiled Safety Cables part # C80176 at the very least.
