I did it for about a year. cut your corner speeds some and you shouldn't have any problems

Its safe, but you will have to change your driving habbits. I have been driving my jeep wrangler w/ out them for some time. It took me about a week to get used to the body roll when you turn, The only scary thing is having to stop fast.

my buddy did the entire time he owned it after he put his 3.5" lift on an you couldnt even tell it wasnt on ... tho his suspention was so stiff it would have given a corvette a run for its money...

Hey Mud,
Maybe the Corvette he's referring to was older than yours. You know, solid front axle, single parallel leaf pack, no front brakes and a 36" steering wheel.

lol i just ment it was stiff as all hell, the thing couldnt keep all 4 tires on the ground with 35" tires over a 1' obstacle... nothing to do with how well it carves the corners.
