on my 06 Denali, the front diff has a terrible humming noise. Is it ok from me to drive around without the front drive shaft for awhile, to confirm its the front diff? I was gonna pull it from the diff to t-case

If your trying to isolate a noise yes you can. Would not recommend leaving it not leaving it like that for long period of time.

Good luck let me know how it works.. I was mistaken earlier it won't cause problems because it won't move.

Yes I wasn't to remove the drive shaft from the T-Case to the front diff and drive it around. How long can I drive like that?

Because its an all wheel drive transfer case. It will send all power to front with shaft removed. Your most likely hearing differential bearings
