    Can someone with this kit give an overall measurement of the height of the truck. Im thinking of purchasing this kit with either 295/70/18 tire or a 35x12.5 and woukd like to see if it woukd fit in my garage. My garage door opening is 83".

    I currently have a 3" level with 285/70/18s and have about 6 inches of cleareance between the roof and top of garage door opening.

    If the tire size is what you’re going for, you can fit either size on the lift you currently have with the right offset of rims. Just food for thought.

    Hey bro. Didn't see this yesterday. Have the BDS 4 1/2 and 35s. Don't have exact measurement but you can tell from this pic 83 door height probably isn't going to work. Also check the opener motor to see the clearance there. This is stand garage door so should be 84 in. Hope this helps.20170714_121448.jpg

    5CE9CF95-D1AB-45A6-B231-F9CE080FBCDC.jpg My garage is 83 inches and I come in it half way before I stop. I THINK I will touch the top of the garage with my truck half way in, I’m running 7 inch BDS with 37 inch tires.. if I had 35’s and 2 1/2 inches less in most.. it would fit with out a problem

    you can adjust the track on some garage doors too. Might give you an extra inch.

    On my door, this bracjet actually hangs lower than the opening. Its not a problem for me as I park off to the side of it.

    No problem.. that’s just my 2 cents.. I think it would fit, judging on what I have and what you’re wanting. It would be close but I’d say tbwould fit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Trd pro grill color match door handles and mirror. 4 1/2 bds lift
    Just noticed your post hope this helps. I have the 4 1/2 BDS lift with Toyo lt/305-55R20 my garage door is 83” high opening and I have between 3 and 3 1/2” clearance. I think my tires are considered 33” tires but if you put on 35s should only add 1” additional height so I think you will be ok.
