Hey folks here is the story, just came back from a camping trip and had a Kayak and Canoe up on my roof rack, long story short two of the stock cross bars broke at the claw and looking to replace the rack with a Baja rack.
Here is my question, i have leveled my rig with front leveling springs, and am concerned about the height of the truck + Baja rack i think i read somewhere that the height with a stock rack on a leveled 4x2 is around 6'4", how much higher is the Baja rack on a leveled 4x2?
my concern is brought on be the possibility of being put in an underground parking garage in my condo when i take possession in a few months, and they of course haven't posted the max height for said garage
Thx

It may be easier to measure with a 2 piece pole and C-clamp, find the lowest spot by connecting the 2 poles together with the cclamp. It can be adjusted as lower spots are found along your path and measured. Is this clear? I think this is called a "story pole" by builders/surveyors.

If your garage is standard 7', then you should be good.
My car garage is 7' and I can just squeeze in but I have to remove my hi-lift from the rack.

The brand new Baja Utility Rack for FJ's (p/n BR-TYFJ-UT-S-1-0) is super low-profile. It has no sides and even the wind deflector goes from the rack down to the windshield area.
