I'm installing a 4"bds and 1" ord zero rate (front) and an echobit shackle flip on the rear. It's either gonna be sitting on 33"s or 36"s (depending on if I have time to get the axles in too). So I wanna see if I'm gonna be able to do it in the garage /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

I'm running around a 6inch lift with 35's and my truck runs the average of maybe 7'4" The back end is up higher.

At 4" and 35s I could barely get in the garage door. I'd have to un-hook the opener and pull inside slowly while holding the door up (7'2"-7'4" I'd guess).

At 9" and 38s it's hopeless to try the garage without tiny tires, and in that case, the same routine as before must be used.
 
My truck is still under 7 feet. 4+1 lift and 39.5's. I'll get a more accurate measurement tomorrow...

mine is 75 inches with the top on and most garages are 72 im pretty sure is standard.i got mine in but i let enuf air outa the tires so they were almost riding on the rim and bead.i think like 4 psi,i never checked it though.
 
hmm. . . i got 10" lift and 39's and mine's only about 7'5" or 6" and ya'll's are about the same with 4" and 35"s. . .ya'lll measurin right?
 
My K5 from ground to top of roof is over 6 feet there Bowtiered you may want to remeasure.
 
with 6" lift and 35's and the top off, mine is 7'..I know b/c I JUST rubbed a clearance marker for a parking garage...with my top on it is 7'6" b/c I have a Yakima rack on my hardtop...
 
yeah I went and measured mine, on 32s and 2" of lift in the back right at the driver door is about 6 3" The more I think about it BowTie's sounds right. Think of it like this, add say 9" to my K5, that puts it at 6'11". 32s vs 39s thats a 7" difference but of course only half of that is under the axle so its a 3.5" increase. There is 7'2.5". If anything his seems a little high to me, ha.
 
OK, I got an accurate meaurment tonight. Brandy new 39.5's, and 5" of lift...

83" to the highest point on the roof. That's 6' 11" tall.

I was pretty sure it was still under 7 feet tall. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

With 33's, worn-out stock springs, and 3" bodylift, mine is 6'5" above the cab. Just BARELY fits in the parking garage at the hospital my wife works at; I actually found myself ducking in the truck because it looked so close to my head... /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
 
My 84K10 with 4" of BDS/shackle flip lift and 33" rubber is 79.25" to the highest part of the cab.
