Is there anyway I can drive (less than 50miles) with out my rear drive shaft in place? Just leave it in 4x4 and run it as FWD? Does the rear drive double as some sore of fluid seal?


Probably not if you don't seal the xcase after you remove it. It's a slip yoke design and fluid does come out when it's not in place. You can ask some of the regulars who've been on here since the early days how I found this out...
