Been discussed but it is installed for driveline vibs. Some remove them and have no problems and others have had some vibrations after removal
So its up to you

There is really no reason to remove it. People just do it. If anything it reduces the weight of your Jeep by a whopping total of like 30 lbs.

Mine got removed cause it was causing vibrations in my driveline it was my fault the I bent them, but they sit in my garage now.
