Can anyone tell me how to disconnect the front drive shaft on my all wheel drive Audi?

Supposing you were to remove the central diff and the lay shafts from your Audi 90, do you intend to replace the section with a series of welded CV joints?





Although it's technically possible, you then have the problem of re-balancing the crankshaft and the timing of the engine, because there's less flying weight which would be hanging off the back of the engine.





This is still an absurd proposition.

You have to:


- disconnect the lay shafts off of the central diff,


- remove the front diff housing,


- somehow either reweld in place of the front diff you've disconnected


- remove the central diff housing and weld in some CV joints


- remove and replace the rear diff with some other replacement because there will be extra torque passing to the rear wheels.





Minimum you're looking at 150+ man hours, because essentially you're replacing 75% of the drivetrain.
