98 crv driveline
So I have a 98 crv and the driveline came in connected from where it connects to the front axel. I here the u joints are staked in and I have to replace the entire driveline. Is this true and is it easy and where do I get I driveline? Also because it's AWD can I just discount the other end at transmission and drive it on rear wheel drive?

go to a drive shaft shop and they can get this fixed, easy fix. front u joint from your trans to rear axle is damaged. old school hammer/punch it out and back in, new school hydraulic press to fix. If you are not mechanically minded, shop is easy fix. if you know what you're doing, lesser cost. just a u joint.

So I can remove the entire drive line and go front wheel drive? So even though it's broke up front so it's front wheel drive and goes 4 wheel drive when it needs to? I thought it was always AWD. So the driveline is 3 prices so I remove the other 2 peices so there is no driveline and then it's just front wheel drive? Then I can drive it till I get the money to fix it. It won't hurt anything?

If you remove the driveshaft, all that may happen is that when (and if) your car feels the need to send power to the rear wheels, it will just spin the plate on your transfer case (where your driveshaft is disconnected) and will do nothing; therefore making the car only front wheel drive

Thanks for your help all of you I'm on a budget because I had heart surgery and I am lows on funds because I have been off work. Plus I don't much about the CRV's my daughter gave it to me before she left the country on a job.
