foward drive shaft issue
I have a 2000 expedition with a bad foward drive shaft. Its starting to bind but I dont have the $ for a new one/ rebuild kit. Can I temporarily remove it and keep driving ie with out the transfer case leaking etc? I ask because the drive shaft will not disengage due to automatic 4wd.

You can remove the front drive shaft and it will NOT leak. Unlike the rear drive shaft, the front does not slide into anything, both ends of it bolt up. Before removing it, be sure to mark the mating surfaces with paint, and label front and rear of the shaft. This way when you go to reinstall it there won't be any guesswork.
