CONVERTING FROM AWD TO 2WD
Is it a good idea is the first question. Well if you wanted a 2WD then Balboni or 550-2 is available but at a cost. Many people say don't do it but then many people have and say they love it. Giving it a try won't hurt but be sure you keep everything you remove so it can be replaced.
Responses from people who have done it say it is so much easier to drive and the steering is not as heavy (lighter).
