You can almost caster the nose gear with the scissors disconnected. If you have an operatable APU, you can power the System "B" Hydraulic pumps, as they are both electric. However, you need a minimum amount of about 1560 lbs of fuel in the right wing to ensure cooling, the alternative is to hook up a mule to the hydraulic system so the brakes can be ridden too.
