Just wondering how tall a 2016 RAM 1500 would be if lifted 6 inches with 35 inch tires. I go to UCF and the parking garages are only 7ft tall. Im sure the 2012-16 models are all the same height so if anyone knows could you let me know.

If it did fit.. I'm guessing it would be by 1", if that. I don't have a measurement.. But I'm 6'3" and my truck is taller than me with 35s and 2.8 up front. Add 6" to guess.... Probably anywhere from 6'11" - 7'1".

Screw the parking garages, park away from door dings and walk.

You might could get away with a 4". There are some guys on here who say they can still fit that in their garage. My one I'm getting rebuilt has a 7' opening which is part of why I just went with a level. The 35's still fit fine with bilsteins at 2.8

There's parking garages out here that a stock truck won't fit in... I leave those for the yuppies and their bmw's. My 6" lift is sitting in the garage, awaiting install.

My lift will be here the week after next... going to be hard to stare at it sitting in my garage until my wheels and tires are ordered. Must be difficult... lol!

I had a 6" lift with Bilsteins at 1.4" and 35's on my old 2012 1500. It ended up being 6'-11.25" to the top of the satellite antenna. With the new style antenna on the 16's you'd be higher than that so no, wouldn't fit in a 7' parking garage.
