Another FWD XC. Of course you have more bhp and get better mpg, less drag on the drivetrain without the prop shaft.
No, you cannot reconnect the shaft without the center carrier. The shaft will flex and hit the bottom of the car and the driveshaft will quickly break the CV joints and fall on the ground. If the front of the shaft hits the ground first, then the car will try to play like a pole vault.
Just get a new center carrier and put it back together again before you sell it.
