Quite a few have done it and there are plenty of answers.

Me - I took the rear one off and left the front one on. I would sometimes take the front one off for more difficult trips but the handling on the road is pretty unpredictable and decidedly average.

With Front and rear lockers I am considering putting th rear one back on to make it better on the road again.

Best bet is for you to take your off and see what you think.

There is more advantage gain offroad by removing the rear one as the front is quite limited anyway. You will gain more travel in the rear (more with longer shocks) than you will in the front.
