Disc Brakes with or without Stoneguard

What are peoples opinions on stone guards on the discs...If I can see no other purpose that they fulfil, I'm thinking of removing them from my Sierra.
Better access for cleaning and cooling, less chance of mud/rocks building up behind them...Less blood when changing broken CV's etc.
I know brakes are a touchy subject to some, but I will consider all thoughts/opinions.
While I doing the diff, may as well re do brakes, bearings etc at same time.

It is annoying bending the stone guards and them rubbing on the disc's.
I have had mine off for a long time with no problems.

i was running without my rear right stone guard for ages coz of an accident in the bush involving a car jack :cool: but when the option for a genuine brand new one for $10, why not? especially when they are $45 second hand from halls 4x4 salvage in bayswater :x
