You can pull the rear driveshaft and just drive with front wheel drive if you really want to. I have driven like that for a while before.

I believe Jerry or someone once mentioned a top from a can of WD40 covers the hole. Mike 86/00 CJ7 Laredo, 33x9.5 BFG Muds, 'glass nose to tail in '00 88 Cherokee 235 BFG AT's |
