i took my front propellar out last week. cv's on passenger side are toast...wobble wobble cluck cluck. Easy way for the front part of it to come out is to jack up the transfer case to put it at an angle. The rear of it came out by putting a cold chisel and 3lb hammer in between the TC and shaft. rides a lot better, still have the problem but just doesn't seem as bad. never had to take the crossmember out as well.
