well there used to be a theory from the SS guys that removing your front driveshaft would work, but some of those guys started ******* up their trucks. I would drive the extra distance. It's too much of a chance just for some pretty numbers.

guessing you have a syclone you could do as mentioned above but with a viscous coupling sytle transfer case it can mess some things up. but with your wheel base find an awd dyno shouldnt be as hard as us ss guys with the huge wheelbase.

His sig says GMC C3, they were offered with AWD as well. His best bet is to pull the front ds, other than that you'll have to search for an AWD dyno. I know there's one in FL, PA and MI. There's more but those I know for sure.

EDIT: FYI Chase (2004 SSS), the C3 as what the Sierra Denali is now.

I would HIGHLY recommend not pulling the front drive shaft. Where are you located at? Granatelli Motorsports in Oxnard, Ca has an AWD dyno, That is where I go. It is 350 mile drive for me. Nice little road trip.
