Removing Half Shafts

I hear they are bad about breaking with 4+" drops and I plan on bagging my blazer at the beginning of the year so I figured I'd go ahead and remove them while I'm removing the torsion bars.

What are you going to do with the front drive system?...remove it all?
I know others have talked about removing the half shafts but i think you still need something up there....not sure.

Yeah you have to at least put the stubs (for lack of a better term) back in the hubs with the nuts on them or the hubs will fall apart! Search around a bit a few other threads have discussed doing this as well.
