Has anyone run into any problems when they disconnected their front axles? I'm concerned with the increased flex possibly stressing the brake lines, breather hose, or binding control arm bushings.
I have seen issues with suddenly disconnecting the axles of "mall-crawlers" (Jeeps that had lifts on them but had never been fully flexed). I realized the hard way that my brake lines were too short and my bump stops were useless. My Jeep will see 95% off-pavement use and never go above 45mph on the highway, so the front end will spend all summer disconnected.
I have a 2021 JT Sport with the Mopar 2" lift and 35" tires. I'm not worried about the tires rubbing, just other stuff.
