I have also been told that the steering wheel lock can be disabled on those Jeeps so equipped. I hear it is a very simple procedure, so there is no reason to keep disconnecting the battery.
I have completed this switch procedure, and the key can be left in the off position with the steering unlocked.
BUT
The wheels may lock back up when your front wheels pass thru the centered position and stay in that position while being towed.
Yes I have placed my Jeep on stands and tried it. it does lock.
If the lock pin is removed (the recommended procedure), the steering wheel can not lock.
Or, just buy a 2006 unit or a 2012 or later unit, and have no problem.
