Can someone with a first gen that has 35" tires and a 6" lift please tell me the height to the top of the windshield with the top off. Need to find total inches to see if mine with a bit bigger lift will fit into garage. Thanks

I measured a couple of different first gens with "6 inch" lifts with 35s and they varied from 79-82 inches. My first gen with a 4ish inch lift and 37s measures 82 to the top of the windshield frame.
 
Thanks BB72. Anyone else? Right now I've got about 3" or so springs with zero rates which means I've got about 4" or even up to 5" of lift and I still have about 3"-5" of clearence in my garage. I do have a funny approach angle at the front of garage so I might be able to get away with a little bigger lift than normally would be allowed in a standard garage.
 
Mine runs through a very old garage door w/ 37 and 5-6" lift at 5 psi. I can measure the door opening if you want.

But w/ the top on is a joke. Actually backed it in on the rear drums last winter. Not recommended for semi floater axles...
