So is there a substantial difference between dragging something that weighs 1 ton (no implements like wheels or pulleys or ropes) versus lifting something that weighs 1 ton?

your question doesn't make sense.

Yes, I think lifting something is way more impressive than pulling something. Like there are real people who can pull trucks and airplanes, but nobody even comes close to lifting that.

Is there an example I can look up for pulling calculation?

Only examples I can think of where LS feats involve friction coefficient is Leon's rock-moving feat. Though it is a pushing feat, the formula is made for both pushing and pulling.

Dragging something can be accomplished by overcoming the force caused by friction, whose formula is: F = Fn * µ,
where Fn is the normal force exerted by the Earth on the mass and µ is the coeffient of friction
It generalizes to: F = m * g * cos θ * µ, where θ is the angle of the slope the objects lies on
Considering the coeffient of friction can be really tiny, you can drag massive objects such as Planes with far lower LS
