removing leaves

[MasterFocus]

Hi everyone, I'm new here a the station

I have a 2000 Ranger Splash with 2 reinforcing leaf on each side and I want to remove them to level the truck since I dont need them. My question is, if I remove them, is there any danger to run with the 3 stock ones no attached together? if so, can I simply removed them and then go to a shop and have them attach?
thank you

edit: shops around here are charging me 200$ and ~1h30 to remove them

but is there any chance to the stock leaves to twist without the the clip?
the ones I'm removing where put last year by the ex owner and are no longuer needed by me but they are attached together at each end
