Hi,

I have a 95 Grand Cherokee V8 All time 4 wheel drive and it makes a lot of noise in the front differential due to bad bearings at this time I don't have time to fix it, it is OK to remove the drive shaft and drive the vehicle without it or will the vehicle suffer any damage in other components as the transfer case, A/T or rear Differential?

No more damage should occur
but I believe the noise will continue that because the tires still turning as you drive
