Default Temporarily put 3" shocks on a 1.75" lift?

I have 3" coil springs on the way but the shocks are already here. I am wondering if I am able to put the shocks on now and then just do the springs and track bar when the springs get here. Will this hurt the shocks? It has 1.75" spacers in the front currently. Thank you

you'll be fine as long as you're not bottoming out the shocks

Okay thanks. It will be only street driving until the new coils are installed.

your probably gonna take off the shocks to install the coils. so you can lower axle farther so you might just wanna wait anyways... but you will be fine putting them on now
