Will disengaging the all wheel drive and driving in front wheel drive only hurt the vehicle?

The manual states that it is only recommended for short periods of time. I do not know why! could have something to do with the front transmission not being designed to take full power from the engine, as when AWD is engaged your front wheels only receive 90% and the rear 10%, until of course the front wheels slip and the rear gets allocated more power. I hope this helps and would be interested to hear other opinions.

What is the difference between front wheel drive and two wheel drive?
A front wheel drive vehicle is only driven with the front wheels. It will have a transmission in the front with drive lines attached. A two wheel drive vehicle is any vehicle that is only driven by two wheels. It can be a front or rear wheel vehicle. For instance. My dodge ram 1500 v6 is two wheel drive from the rear. An Oldsmobile cutlas cirea is two wheel drive but in the front. I hope this helped. Derek
