Are you remove it to keep it from being damaged if the rear wheels are up when being lifted or towed from the rear?

Thanx guys. Let's see how it goes. I am re moving the front bumper cause I am goNna tow it. I'm not gonna use a tow dolly. I am usin something else dint know what's it's called but best I can say is it's like if it were linked up to my car. Offcourse still being pulled on a hitch. Do u know what I mean and where would I connect it on my car. I was told the front if the frame that's why I'm removing the bumper?

Better learn how to replace the transmission too if you plan on towing it with the rear wheels on the ground,as it will destroy the transmission.

Flatbed it or drop the Drive-shaft.
As qship mentioned it will destroy the transmission if you tow with the rear wheels on the ground and drive-shaft attached.
