You should try doing a search, your question has been asked a few times in the past, here is a link to one of the posts that will relate to your question: Drive Shaft

Good Luck!

More trouble than its worth, removing the shaft is more complicated than just removing bolts since I believe the rear end of the shaft is a splined yoke that slides onto the transfer case spline (similar to how a torque converter sits on a transmission).... removing this will result in fluid loss. I also think any mileage gain (should you figure out a way) would be minimal at very best.... like maybe 1mpg. If your looking to save on mileage get yourself a tune, air intake and switch all fluids to a synthetic such as royal purple, with all this you may see a 2MPG increase if your lucky
