That wouldn't make any sense. Converting to a front-only setup would be much more efficient, would allow the vehicle to be lowered to a more 2wd-like stance, and eliminate a lot of dead weight in the process. Also, you can't just remove the transfer case from a 4wd, you would need to get ahold of a 2wd driveshaft, as the 4wd shaft is shorter.
