Is this what you want to do - it was not clear from your example:
> x
[[1]]
[1] 1
[[2]]
[1] 2
[[3]]
[1] 3
[[4]]
[1] 4
> x <- x[-3]
> x
[[1]]
[1] 1
[[2]]
[1] 2
[[3]]
[1] 4
>
Or maybe this:
> x <- list(c( 1,2 ,3,4),c(4,5,6,7),c(8,9))
> x
[[1]]
[1] 1 2 3 4
[[2]]
[1] 4 5 6 7
[[3]]
[1] 8 9
> x[[2]] <- x[[2]][-2]
> x
[[1]]
[1] 1 2 3 4
[[2]]
[1] 4 6 7
[[3]]
[1] 8 9
