truthfully you need a trans cooler connection to your rv since even in neutral there is no pump turning in the trans and the rear driveshaft will still turn the PTU which is a mini transfer case which is connected to the final drive of the trans...not recommended truthfully

or if it has a bolt on yoke at PTU you can pull rear drive shaft and you will be safe
