newb needs help quick question (real time)

[hadji_85]

I'm doing the front axle rebuild, do i need to put the trans in N and the transfer case in N, or just the trans in N in order to be able to move the rotor around.

Also i'm already up on jackstands with the tire off, do i need to start the car in order to put everything in neutral or just put the key in. Do i need to put my tire back on, will it fall of the jackstand?

You don't need to do anything.

If both tires are off the ground, you can move each rotor independantly without worrying about driveshaft movement. If you need to move the shaft for some reason, leave the rig as is and just pull the transfer shifter into N.

i only had one tire off the ground, i guess i'll jack up the other side

You will be better off with the whole front end in the air anyway
