So people say this works and does no damage to the clutch in the transfer case but I dont know.

Do you think it is a good idea or bad idea to remove front drive shaft and run the truck on a 2WD dyno.

Will the clutch hold up or what other damage could occure.

I need to get this on a dyno one way or another, Im looking for a transfer case to mod into a 2WD unit but finding one cheap is hard.

What do you guys think???

 

with no stress being placed on it how could it damage the t case

 

If you are looking for an absolute then don't do it. Give Rick @ Synergy a call and maybe he can set you up in one way or another with the one he told you he modified to be able to do this. You can find the other threads you asked this question in :

STRESS ON THE CLUTCH OR ANY OTHER COMPONETS, BASICALLY WILL ANYTHING BLOW UP DOING THIS??

 

Yes ... it is going to fly apart in a million pieces. Now Go Do It.
I see you forgot how to turn off your CAPS LOCK key again.
You are starting to crack me up ... people give you the answer ... you don't like what you hear so you ask someone else ... you remind me of my kids ... when they were little.

 

I KNOW I KNOW, SORRY CAP LOCKS ARE ON CAUSE IM AT WORK, ADP ONLY USES CAPS, LOL, IT JUST DOES NOT MAKE SENSE IN MY HEAD

ITS GOING TO GO ON THE DYNO AS SOON AS I CAN GET IT IN, THANKS

ARE YOU SURE ITS GOING TO BE OK,
LOL JUST JOKING!!! IM DOING IT, THANKS

 

Cool!! You are gonna be happy with the power you make I am sure ... Post up the results ... I am very interested in seeing what you come up with ... Have a good one and keep us posted

 

It should just lock the clutch in the t case and spin the front output. I dont see how it would hurt anything. Should be easier on it than when it has a front shaft in it.

 

the tcase has a direct drive to the rearend and the frontend is connected via the clutch. if you take the front driveshaft out you will take ALL stress off the clutch and make a bit more power. DO IT!!!!

 

I have dyno'd my AWD 03 Silverado SS at least 50 pulls (4 different sessions) with the front shaft removed with no issues as of yet. I was more worried about the rear shaft blowing than damaging my T-case. BTW, I was north of the 500/500 mark many times if you need a power reference.

No body chimed in on the negative side yet. I am sure there is some issues that haven't been brought up yet.
