Default Wanna lose Low gears but not reverse

Is there any to do this? Also I have been having some funny stuff happening. Was running the other day and here is what happened. everything was fine, then there was not power to the rear. Stopped it and found nothing wrong. Got back running, was fine then no power to the front. Man I can confirm that the LST cannot be a 2wd. too much power. well looked at it this time and the guts on one of the front CVDs was gone. a closer look and I saw that the pin had ripped through the stub. It was crack on one side and the other side was wore out. Obviously found the power loss to the front, but that doesn't explain the rear issue.

I want to do the opposite. Lose reverse, but no the low gear

LJ, the FOC causes you to lose reverse, and low gear, not the two speed

I was thinking about eliminating the low gear only because i want reverse. Than i was thinking whats the difference, just dont use it. maybe some benefit from less rotating mass?
