...otherwise, convert your auto hubs to manual, or fit manual hubs from a ute or DX wagon.

If you are going to be doing this a lot then I'd be considering changing diff ratios to be honest.
Short answer is Yes but all the reasons above re the hubs is true.
If you have a Factory TD42T them you will be running 3.9:1 Diff ratios. Your car will be a far better tow pig running some 4.1:1 will make a difference for sure.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.

Changing different ratios will also lift your cruising rpm up a couple of 100revs and your TD will thank you.
Your TD42T HATES 2000rpm. Don't cruise at 2000rpm. Do you have a EGT Guage? If you don't you should fit as a matter of urgency.

You will only get transmission wind up if you travel in 4WD on hard surfaces AND turn corners. When you turn corners your front and rear wheels travel different distances and that is where you get lock up. If you take off from lights in a straight line there is no problem - just remember to change to 2WD as soon as you can.
