Question shock question

i am planning on installing my lift tomorrow and the only component i am missing is my shocks. i have a two door and i just have the 4 door rubicon springs and the terflex spacers.... i have my new shocks on order but the only day i have off for a while is tomorrow so i wanted to get at least the bulk of the lift done

so my question is, is it ok to install my lift and leave the stock shocks on there for about a week or so as long as i dont wheel it or flex it anymore than daily driving calls for?

thanks in advance for any help

Your rear shocks especially are gonna be maxed out, I wouldn't run it for long that way.
