I would not recommend that. why would you want to do that? Even if the bearing was really bad, it's better to leave the bracket on than to try and drive the vehicle without the support bracket. Without the support bracket in place there would be a possibility of the axle damaging the transmission. That is the whole reason they have the bracket to hold the axle in place. The bracket holds the axle in line for the trans.

If you cannot put the support bracket back on have the car towed to a place they can repair it.
