XLS model. The trans-axle is broken. is it possible to make it two wheel drive by removing either the front or rear drive shaft and drive it like that until i can have it fixed?

Good evening.

What do you mean broken?

Is there damage to the case?

Can you post a picture of what you see?

Okay, thanks.

You need to have it towed to a shop.
