Removal of propshaft is a well tried and successful method of "fix" for various AWD issues. My concern would be insurance. They may be unhappy about the prop removal and refuse cover or increase premiums. I suspect many don't tell the insurance company, and while it might be ok if they are involved in a small knock, they will get hung out to dry if the police get involved in a more serious incident.
