The reason for my question is I have had a drivshaft disconnect kit (Remco) installed on my truck so that I may tow it behind my motor home. By disconnecting the rear driveshaft I think I should be ok. If the front shafts are turning all the time it should not make a difference as far I can see.

Any comments?
