Height concerns for underground parking
Hi guys, first time posting on here. couldn't find the answer to my question on any previous threads.
I have a 2008 Lariat that I am looking to level 2.5" and put 35" goodyear duratrac tires on the 20" lariat rims. as far as I can tell it should all fit with no rubbing issues but one thing I cant find is what the overall truck height will be afterwards. best ive been able to measure mine at now is 6'2" on tires that measure close to a 32". the height restriction in my apartments underground is 6'8"... really hoping to get 35's instead of 33's but im worried about clearance. I know it will be real close. if anyone has the setup that im looking to get and knows the trucks height it would help me out a lot.

Not going to work with 35s, I have a leveled 05 Lariat 4x4 with 33s and my truck is tight in a 6'-8" underground parking garage I use every day. I think with that combo your going to scrape the roof on a concrete beam. I have about 4 inches to spare on levels and it gets close on some of the ramp changes.

ok thanks for the advice. plans to level it and test my clearance with the current tires. then add a sheet of Styrofoam on the the roof and see if it hits it off going through the gate

I have a 2.5 inch level on 35 inch NItto trail graps. I know I can fit under 7'1" but thats going in on flat ground. if theres an incline that may change... good luck
