Default problem solved. thanks again everyone.

I am in the middle of installing a 4" lift and completed the rear including the replacement of the brake lines. I am going to finish the front end tomorrow. Problem is....i need to start my jeep and roll it about four inches forward. But i havent bled my brakes yet.

Can i start my jeep after replacing brake lines if i havent bled the brakes yet????

This is obviously my first time working with brake line mods. I just dont want to f up my master cylinder or something worse.

Thanks in advance!!!!!

Use your emergency brake to stop and only push your foot brake in enough to get into gear.
