My 84 SJ 410 does not have a roll bar. All my other SJ from 85 and later do have one. .

Is there much difference in the road handling? I’m on OME lift springs and Muds so I can’t imagine it’s going to have much if anything in the way of vehicle dynamics…

I took mine off my S3 a couple of years ago after it started snapping the mounting bracket off the axle. And then repeatedly snapping so I was being left with more weld than bracket.
I don't race around anywhere but I really didn't notice any difference on road.
I suspect it's an MOT failure if the MOT man notices. So don't go leaving nice clean sections of chassis where you unbolted it!

I don't have any issues with removing of ARBs.
Although anti roll will also be down to the spring and damper setup. Assuming the setup is quite flexy, I find it baffling that people say they can't notice a difference on road....
