I want to disconnect the drive shaft from the transfer case to the front differential and install the Remco Drive Shaft Coupling on the drive shaft from the transmission to the rear differential.
I never use the 4 wheel drive and I can't afford a new toad, so I want the above to work. It all seems possible and that is what I was understanding, but my brother told me that it may be possible that the pickup won't move with the front drive shaft from transfer case to the front differential being removed. If anyone knows what the facts are, can you enlighten me on the fact, I really want this to work.
Well,
I'm not sure why your brother would make such a statement. The front drive shaft doesn't even come in to play until you engage the four wheel drive system anyway. There is no power applied to the front drive shaft, IN TWO WHEEL DRIVE. So, he's a bit off, in that statement. Now, as to the rest of your intent. Well, if you can't afford a newer toad and, have to keep the one you have, I guess a drive-shaft disconnect might be the way to go for you.
I'm not a fan of them for many reasons but, it's your truck and your operation so, go for it and, have fun.
