- 1998 Eddie Bauer 5.0 AWD
Somehow I overlooked the fact that the 98 5.0 AWD I just bought is missing the front drive shaft. Figured it out pretty quick after she rolled away while I was in the diner having lunch.
Half the reason I bought the thing for was to drive in the snow and off road. Now I would be willing to bite the bullet to try to replace the shaft, but I have no idea why it was taken off in the first place.
Is there any way to know if the transfer case or the front differential are bad before I start throwing money away?
I saw the other thread with some people that have removed them, but I didn't see anyone who had tried to put a new one in.
