I have an 89 xj, 4.0, aw4, np231,front detroit lunch box locker, rear full case detroit, 4.56 gears, 33"tires,front axle is now one peice I believe tj axles with dana 44 u-joints and stubs. So I no longer have 2 peice shafts in front. Can I flat tow this t-case in neutral , tranny in park? Or do I have to remove a drive shaft?

Thanks

I wouldn't flat tow it with lockers in the front,
Just my opinion.

You'll need to remove a drive shaft. I woudl remove the front one.
That's why a selectable locker in the front is the way to go if you are going to flat tow.

There is another current/very recent thread about this same topic. I don't want to have to write it out again, so look down for it.
