Anti roll bars
Range Rover Blues:
Will do but don't hold your breath. My mate with the machine shop in his shed has just become a dad :D

Hmm, I think it needs to come off. Have a look at this and see what the back axle (no ARB) is doing compared to the front...even the good Dr Neil makes a comment about ARBs still being in place!!

I recently fitted a 2" lift to my Disco including rear dislocation cones and extended brake hoses.
Also took off the front and rear Anti Roll bars.
Went to Wales the very next weekend and did the Wayfarer and a few other lanes. The ride was just as good as with the anti roll bars there, admitedly the springs are stiffer. Going up the A5 the roundabouts did not produce any noticeable roll and off road the articualtion was great.
In other words - just do it!
BigA:
I have a +2" lift on mine with Pro comp shocks, and removed both ARB's and handles just as well on road (if not better)
I have had an MOT since removing the ARB's and passed fine, the tester even asked how it handled without them fitted, as he didn't notice any difference when he took for a drive ?
I have 265/75/16 BFG's, and even with the camel cut, during the Billing bash weekend i still caught the tyres on the arches and took some rubber off around the edges, i am still to figure out how to cure this one.
I haven't yet fitted the extended brake hoses, as i cant get the existing ones undone, and had no problems yet ?
Hope this helps ?

Buy some copper, unions and a flaring kit... chop the old pipes and renew them!
It's a doddle!
