Default Track Bar Relocation Bracket

Looking for some info on theis. I did a 4" lift alone, all by myself ( kinda pissed because my help never showed up) but at the same time satisfied because this was my frist time doing something of this nature and it came out all right. Anyway 9.5 hours later I notice my rear axle is about 1/4 -1/2" off centered to the left. It looks like if i take the relocation bracket off and mount it to the factory spot it will center back up, and the same goes for the frontbut to the right. Will there be any harm done to the Jeep if I remove the relocation brackets all together? I was going to buy the adjustable Trackbars but it looks like it "should" even back out if I just put it back into the factory location. Guidance is needed on the because it buggs me to death.

No clue how your axles could be centered with a 4" lift and no brackets/adjustables, but you're there and can see it, I'm not.

Up front, you have not only a trackbar bracket, but a drop pitman arm also. If you remove one, your components are no longer parallel, which causes some nice bumpsteer and fun handling. So be sure to remove both.

I jumped the gun on the measurements, where i live i make a hard turn into the parking space. with the stuff moving around under there i made it look like it was off. as i looked at it today after parking from a straight pull in they were lined up perfect the front and the rear. I guess that's one of the draw backs from being a noob!
