Haven't done it myself, but those who have usually call it something like "best mod I've ever done". BTW, ViperBob ([e-mail]) sells an entire kit to do this correctly and it's completely reversable if you don't like it.
Edited to add:
Seems the other necessary bit is an industrial strength LSD in order to keep all the wheels pointed the right way.

Toby (tb993tt) has just posted an extestive report on Rennlist on the positives and negatives of this converison.

I did it once - inadvertently. Coming out of a fast and wet roundabout in Hemel Hempstead I gave it full beans (like only you can in a 4 when it's wet) only to realise that the 4WD had disconnected itself, it was a sphyncter puckering 80mph fishtail moment I can tell you!

Holy sh*******t, Batman! That must have been ... special. Any idea what caused the front shaft to "disconnect itself"?
