Hi Dave,

You could remove front driveshaft, lock the centre diff and take it for a drive. Then you might see why people say don't do it. Apparently they handle like pigs in 2wd.

cheers, DL

And even worse in front wheel drive :D

Dave, go a GQ front diff and 80 rear. My 80 front is part time and I just run the hubs locked all the time. If you want 2wd, just unlock the hubs and lock the centre diff.

Hope your good with a welder, and it is a PITA trying to clear the draglink.

Have a look at my arms

Yea, its not to bad with a slippery in the rear, i had mine 2 wheeling for ages with a nissan transfer case and a 9" LSD in the rear but now i've gone back to LT95 and maxi's its much better and more stable on the fast stuff, give it a go if you wanna and see what you think, its only a matter of welding the centre diff, taking the front side gear out of course, mmm front side gear you know what i mean :D and see what you think
