They can be, although they are designed to be difficult to disconnect. I've never had one get accidentally disconnected. I second dropping the rear of the subframe. Pretty sure I didn't disconnect the steering shaft when I installed mine, but had to drop the frame to reinstall the new bar, there was just no other way for me.
