Default Just making sure before I pull the trigger....

I'm looking at a F150, and I have future plans for a 6" lift and 35" tires.... Will it be able to fit in my standard garage? the garage height is around 81-82" inches.

Stock height is listed at 73-76 inches, depending on model, so it most likely won't fit after the lift and tires.

Well if I've got 3 inch level and 34 inch tires and my cab height is approx 80 inches and you want to run a 6 inch lift and 35's so you'd be approx 84 inches. It would be super close probably. You could do a 4 inch lift and still easily swing 35's. I really don't know what to tell you haha

I have 6" Fabtech on 37" Toyos. My trucks peak height is exactly 7' = 84".

I had to measure. I park in an underground garage that is marked 7'-6", but there is a low spot right at my parking space. The truck barely clears it by an inch or so.

Also remember that you some have a concrete lip, my bumps up 3" on the concrete pad from the driveway. I have 2" level and 34" and fit with about 2.5" to spare.

I measured from the ground up to the garage.
