i was do a ujoint today and didnt finish it. so i didnt have a rear driveline to bolt up. i put it in 4hi and drive it in front wheel drive for 25miles at about 60mph. did this do any harm?

Drove my 69 GMC about a 100 miles on the front end, gotta do what gets ya home. Hell these guys do front burns in Marlins truckĀ  :turtle:

ok cool. after driving it i didnt think it was hurting anything. nick brought up a good point when he said its just like driving in the snow with 4hi, just no rear driveline now.

Driving it without a rear drive line is of course just fine. But the problems are when you are towing a vehicle and you, for instance, put the transmission in neutral. :nonono:

The 84 survived front drive with 38's for 6 months.  I really doubt you did any harm to you rrig.
Full hydro, 186:1 with an auto and 44's what could go wrong??

Hey guys, this is off topic, but i keep editing and fixing every one's smiliey error..

When you use a smiliey, you have to keep spaces on each sides of the smiliey code.
For instance you can not use:

:driving:my truck
:driving:my truck

but you can use:

:driving: my truck
:driving: my truck

SWEET! like the "front wheel motion" in the toy :love: however, won't driving w/ the front axle engaged cause more stress on the front output shaft, driveline, etc., etc. at 65 mph, you gotta be kidding me! I limped it from the moab rim trail back to moab, but that was at like 25 mph in front wheel drive.....
