After installing LCA can the side dampers be removed without a problem.

Dude you could take them or leave them. I have upr lca's and i just went ahead and left mine on there. No reason to, i just didn't think about removing them. If thats all the rear suspension you have done(other than springs), i would just leave them if they aren't bothering anything

If you have a poly/poly LCA, leave them on. If you have a "good" LCA like a MM (i.e. one with a poly/spherical-delrin bushing), take them off.
