This caught my attention.

I assumed if you put the tranny and the transfer case in neutral it would be a good thing.

I'm getting ready to pull my 91 4x4 w/locking hubs,5 speed pickup with my motor home.

Please tell me more.

While the transmission has a true neutral gear, the t-case does not. Look where N is on the shift pattern, between H4 and L4, so you are in 4WD in that gear. So you end up having the rear output shaft driving the whole front wheel drive section of the case, but the real issue is below:

Gear driven cases use the input gear and low range gears to throw oil on the inside of the housing that collects the oil via gutters and directs it to the rear of the case by gravity. Both style of cases, must have the input shaft spinning to lube the output shaft, speedo gears, and rear seal of the t/case. The rear driveshaft must be removed.
