Robert,
The first conversion I ever did was done the same way KZX11 did his. I spoke to Eaton several times before I did it. Eaton said it would not be a problem. I drove that Volvo about 20K miles towing and bobtail combined.
I never had any problem with that arrangement. Of course you do have to run in the locked position all the time, but that doesn't hurt anything when the truck has been converted to single rear axle. Some folks don't like the look of that yoke sticking out of the rear end housing though.
