Question type: Maintenance & Repair

that the drive shaft or drive line for the front
axle is missing can this harm my truck or is
it okay to just run it with the rear Driveline
making it I guess the two wheel drive

Sounds like a previous owner removed the front shaft due to a transfer case or front axle problem.
