Id like to see that. Im sure its possible, removing the power driven saves any stress/heat to vital components such as the vicous coupling. Mine started to have a hissy fit due to a slow puncture. I removed fuse 19 sorted tyres and it works fine.

If u think something isnt right, remove fuse and your safe untill you can sort the prob

It won't be...if they're looked after then they're as reliable as any other 4x4 system.
