I am planning a long trip - Nova Scotia to Arizona - and back this summer. I have no plans for needing the 4WD except for maybe 2 weeks in Arizona and New Mexico. My questions are: 1) would you recommend removing the front drive shaft for the trip (I can carry it with me and reinstall if/when I need it). 2) Any damage in driving long periods w/o the front drive shaft? (my goal is to save the wear and tear on the VC and drive shaft if not needed) Yes, I have the posts about removing and re-installing the front drive shaft. Thanks, Malcolm S |
