Default Would it be a bad idea too..

So I started my lift at a buddys shop, got the front all buttoned up , started taking apart the rear , but now the shop is needed for bigger Better things. Soo now I have no where to work. Taking it to a shop to finish the rear because of the lack of tools and area to work.

Anyways the shop is like 2 miles away, an I was wondering if it would be a bad idea to drive it there with 3" in the front ad stock rear?

I know it'll look funny cruisin down the road, but is there anything that this will mess with? Should I just throw it on a trailer and truck it there?

Any input would be great haha, thanks

Yeah I drove mine for a week like this. 4.5 up front and stock out back. You feel like you're in a speed boat.

Yeah definitely not gonna hurt it. Mine friend had to do that with his 94 Chevy Suburban when we got the 6" lift in the front and couldn't do the rear the same day. Wish I'd of taken a picture, as he even put the 35's on the front leaving the 32's on rear.. looked hilarious! lol

The photo is kind of deceiving because my driveway is at a slant so it looks better than it actually was. Although I didn't think you could make a Cherokee less aerodynamic than it was already.... this did just That. LolLol
