front axle disconnect
« on: September 21, 2011, 10:36:23 AM »
I need to put a front axle in one of the cars from the "eaglepile 2". It currently has nothing in it. Originally it had a disconnect axle. (84 wagon)
can I put a non-discconnect axle in it and just plug the vacuum lines to get the select shift to work properly?

as long as the gear ratios are the same it'll work no problem and be a shift on the fly car.  pretty much x2 to the post above me
