awd to 2wd - 3/4/2008 4:50:12 PM    carlosd1968   Posts: 5 Joined: 1/23/2008 Status: offline i have an awd magnum.  i was wondering if i pulled the drive shaft out of the front will it then be 2wd?  just like a 4wd truck our cars have a transfercase.  i did not see any sensors at the case.  i only see sensors at the wheels.  has anyone tried this.  i appreciate the help.
