Default it puts add'l stress on tie rod ends and control arms, in extreme cases

it can bend the frame.

Default What about extra stress on the TREs and C/As, as SKIroad'r suggested below? I know those components

are going to go too, but I'd rather have all this stuff last longer.

Default if you know arob then you should already know he is a big instigator of things not to do.

but it's still your choice.
