Ned:
you are absolutely right as far as FWD vehicles are concerned, just dis-engage the transfer case and off you go. It was not my intent to include those. I was merely refering to front wheel drive automatic vehicles. On those my opinion is the same.
As far as wheel bearings are concerned also same idea, your going to have the same wear and tear. My whole aim was at TRANSMISSIONS. Regardlees of whether or not a blown tranny has ever or never happend to any of you 4 downers, none of you can argue that the potential is there, it is just a case of when. I choose not to wait for when, I choose to bypass the when. You guys choose to tempt fate. That is your perrogative. Ain't America wonderfull???? We all have choices. You have yours and I have mine. The OP was asking, if I am correct, for just that, peoples opinions. You have given yours and I have given mine. Now he has all of the info he needs to make his own informed choice based on this info. Mission Accomplished.
