The guys are right about usually needing to be in a higher gear when pull-starting to keep one wheel from binding up.
It does in move in neutral now . . . so the binding wheel may be a simple matter of being in too low a gear.
But . . . it DID bind up in neutral on you when you first pushed in into the barn, so you may well have loose parts running around in the case, and you need to investigate that before you move the tractor too much more. If there is something running loose in there, it's only a matter of time befoe it gets caught up again and busts out the side or bottom of your tranny case
As to how to get in there to look, I don't know the x4s well enough to tell you how best to go in. You might be able to see some by pulling the PTO and looking in, but that would be a limited view and I don't know how much room there is in there for mirrors -- not much I suspect.
If you're up to the job, going in through the top and cleaning things up and keeping track of anything other than sludge that you get out. If it is a roller ball, you then have to determine which bearing it came from, If a tooth from a gear, which one . . . Time consuming and awkward, but a satisfying enough job. Search for threads (there's plenty of them) about what's involved in lifting the deck. The service manual will have that, too.
