would it be safe to drive a d2 with 2 loose propshaft bolts. One on the front and one on the rear. The others are still in place.
 
Depends what you mean by loose.
If they jam in the uj you could have a uj failure and a prop come off.
The outcome of that could well be very dangerous and hence unsafe.
 
Oh I see!
Do you need to wait until you have time to get at them and cut them off to replace?
If the others are tight I suppose one slightly loose isnt that big an issue but I wouldnt assume you can drive like normal and ignore it for any time.
 
What do you mean on loose? Can you turn them by hand? Is the nut away from the flange by 1-2mm? If they are the original nuts, they are self locking so probably will not be more loose, BUT better to fix them asap just be on the safe side.
