If you have the vacuum shifter, you already can.

ok a better question can i damage my transfer by modifying my shift guard for 2wd low

Nope, many have done so. Just remember you are delivering a lot of torque to just one axle, so go easy on the throttle.

As was stated no it won't damage the t-case if used with caution.
Why do you want to do this mod?

Oh how true

thanks for the advice and the reason for the mod is so ican teach my other half to drive it without making it harder to steer while still having low range so it is hard to stall

Good plan. Also, just don't lock the front hubs, and select low range. So, your tcase is in low range 4x4, but the front wheels aren't engaged so you are in 2WD low. Cheers!
