Vehicle Length = 151.9 in (3860 mm)
Guesses? Scientific answers?

Tape some bathrooms scales to your hands, lift jeep and add the two scale readings.

I'd have to lift it like a tire. Pushing my shoulders into it rather than deadlifting the thing

Well I know how the government would solve this problem:
We need a study on whether Jeep owners are disproportionately underprivileged in terms of lifting strength. If the average jeep owner can't lift his jeep we should make it illegal to lift jeeps, otherwise it wouldn't be fair to those who can't perform such a feat of strength.

Very roughly, you could work out how big the moment about the front wheels would be to get the back off the ground.

When I do attempt this, I'll video tape it and post it up here whether I lift it or somehow send myself to the hospital

Really put your glutes into it so you don't tear a hammy or a lumbar. __________________

I'm doing this within reason. I'll prepare for it, warmup well, so on and so forth. I'm not willing to risk injuring myself over this. __________________
