V70-AWD-2000 Converted to Front Wheel Drive-Leak at FR Axle

[cchantzis]

Yes, a few months ago I removed the driveshaft that gets its power through the angle bevel gear and then powers the rear axle. Previously, I had a slight grinding noise - after driveshaft removal the noise is gone. It was a "piece of cake"; the various posts make it to be a HUGE deal but it is really very easy to do. Bonus: Car mileage has improved by 2 miles/gallon and overall the car drives/handles very well.

Lee,
I plan to take out the passenger axle and leaking outer transfer case seal of that passenger axle so I may replace it.
