Default Fabricated a battery tie down

I had a battery tie down welded up that isn't going to break like the cheap after market or stock one. Its overbuilt and I love it

So my HP30 pinion bearing has been the culprit of my noise. figured that out this morning when I shook the driveshaft. I'm wondering if I could pull the guts and axle shafts to convert it to RWD until I can source a replacement? I figure I would have to remove the inner portion of the axle shafts and leave the spindles?

Will that keep enough load off the pinion to keep it from going boom while I find a replacement?

Removed the last bit of weeping from the oil pan in preparation of replacing the rms, oil pump and screen next week. Got a smokin' deal on the OEM parts, except for the gasket, so I figure I'll replace them while I'm there.

Removed the non working rear wiper and replaced it with a washer and a bolt. Now it just looks like a release button for the window. Much cleaner look imho.

I didn't get my shackle relocation done yesterday and I have to work today so the Jeep stays on jack stands for another day.

I have tomorrow off so I am hoping I can get it all back together and the coil spacers installed in the front Thursday. It feels so weird driving a car that sits so low after DDing the Jeep for almost a year.
