back to reverse the front drive shaft was taken out
by previouse owner and its awd pls help its getting
worse

1 Answer

Removing a front drive shaft in an AWD vehicle is probably a really bad idea. I suspect transfer case problems. I would also check out the rear differential which may have worn out bearings.
