Default what if?? (differential question)

ok, i have blown the front diff. in my volcano. i have already blown the rear one and replaced it with a new one. This time, i blew the front just driving it in the grass (no jumping at all). i know it's nblown because it clunks, and i can feel it skipping when i turn the front wheels by hand. my guess is that it's the same as when i blew out the rear one...missing teeth on the ring gear.
but, what if i pull out the front driveshaft and the front dogbones and just make it 2 wheel drive?
i don't have the $$ to buy a new diff. for the front (i know they're cheap...but money is tight right now).
