i have es3000 on mine with a 2" rhino ray lift. never noticed any difference when removed roll bar. ES3000 are fairly firm for a jimny. the 1000 are a bit softer.
MOT no problem either
if you dont like it you can always stick it back on, only a few bolts
helps axle flex when offroad so i'd say do it

I took mine off and I'd say I could notice the difference slightly but not massively. At the end of the day you can't drive a Jimny fast and you definately can't drive a lifted Jimny fast - so in day to day driving it's not an issue - not too sure how a big swerve on the motorway would be if I had to avoid something - so I keep a big distance and my speed down.

Get it off - get it muddy and no-one will know it ever had one on it. There are so many bits of bracket etc on a Jimny I doubt when it's all been covered in mud and nothing looks like it recently came off that anyone would cast a thought to it.

Get it off - get it lifted - take some pictures of the flex you have achieved - post them on here!

Yeah took it for a good blast on both dual carriageways and twisty country roads. I can definitely notice a difference however it is very subtle and I really cant see it being a problem. I think my stiffer shocks and offset wheels definitely help.

I think I have also got to the bottom of my engine problem by replacing the Crankshaft sensor :cheer:
