height after lift

bryan28 · Apr 3, 2017

I'll be getting a 4" Superlift wit Bilstiens up front. If I put the Bilsteins at 1.4" and add the 4" lift with 35" tires what will be the height of the highest point of the truck? I'm assuming that would be the top of the shark fin antenna on the roof. My garage opening is 6' 11" high and I'd like to still be able to park the truck in the garage if possible.

You're good. You'll prob be somewhere around 81". If your nervous about it fitting, set something that is 6-7 inches tall on top of your truck and try driving in/out of garage. I fit under a 7' door with 6" lift and bils at 2.1. That being said everybody's set up is a little different. I took a **** ton of measurements to make sure i'd fit!

You may be closer to 83". My truck sits right at 77" with stock tires and bilstein's set at 2.1. I would think that you will be about 6" higher?

Which xm antenna do you have? On my 2011 its on the back passenger side, and its a little shorter than some of the others. Take your stock roof measurement at highest point. Which might not be the shark fin. I used a level and tape measure. Then add 6.5 inches. 4 for lift, almost 1.5 for bils, and one more for 35" tires. Should be just below 6.5. How your drive way is angled at garage entrance will come into play as well. Here's mine tucked away...

He wont be 6 in higher
you are at 2.1 he will be 1.4 that -.7
add 4 in lift
stock tires 33, 35's are 34.6 so that 1.6 but you only get half in the lift .8

so
4+.8-.7= 4.1 so he will be 4.1 in high and if we go with the 77 at the top of the fin that 81.1

I installed a 4" Superlift with 35's a few months ago. Here's the specs on the change in fender heights. If you get a measure from the top of your fender well to your antennae you'll be close. I'll measure my antennae when I get home.

Before the lift, front was 36" & 36.5"
Rear was 38.5" & 39"
With Toyo AT II's & the Bilsteins set at 1.4, the front is 42.5" & 43"
Rear is 43" & 43.5"

So overall it lifted the front about 6" and the rear 4".
