Well its true as long as your transfer case isn't ingaged. Then you birf will be spining but not locked onto the hub. So just dont put it in 4wd and you should be fine for some time, However like someone already mention, if you birf does snap off it can bind up in the knuckle and you'll be strapped in for a wild ride. Good luck, i would put my money on a bad birf. TIME for longs....
