Ive recently been given a 96 or 97 Mule 2510. 4x4, gas, 2200hrs. Its got a bent driver side control arm(parts ordered). ive also found that it has a bad u joint in the front where the drive shaft and the front diff come together. Ive been told you have to unmount te motor/trans assy to be able to get the shaft out. Is this true? Can someone shed some light on an easy way to get the shaft out? Also, the function of the 4x4 isnt crucial for my use of this mule. Would i be able to just cut the shaft in the middle and just remove it? Would it cause any damage to run it without the front shaft? I kow that on my truck transmission, if there is no shaft inserted onto the splines, it will leak trans fluid.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
