So you have the towbar adapters that have both the 3/4" holes and the 1" holes? If this is true and you are towing with a 5 ton, you need to install the adapters with the 3/4' hole on the bottom. The bar will be much higher in the front where it's attached to the 5 ton. You just need to make sure you have adequate travel up and down so that you don't snap off the towbar. You can leave the driveshaft in the back of the tranny to stop fluid leak, just make sure you unbolt it from the rear axle and tape up the ujoints as Crash AF says. BTW, welcome Crash, it's about time we had some Air Force representation here.
