As KBJ suggests the benefits of disconnecting the front are limited and risky. I along with Mik and KBJ blew the steering rack but I think these are a weak link in the KJ/KK design anyway. Search the KK section for more info on that subject.
Disconnecting the rear seems to be far more beneficial and low risk, in fact it's a hugely popular mod to remove the rear sway gear altogether. I'd have done it myself except for needing to source limiting straps as I don't want be chasing a wayward rear coil when flexing offroad. I'm now inspired to pull my finger out.

So good mate! Do you have extended bump stops in the rear? The tyres look really deep in the guards.

Awesome comparison pics.
I'm definitely going to upgrade with a steering rack bracing kit and a rear sway bar disconnect. They both seem relatively affordable.

No I don't it just sits that way as the whole diff slides sideways based on the control arm flex
