Question for all u people with rulers

Just wondering if anyone knows exactly how high the FJ is with the roof rack?

in the pamphlet and on the net is says its 72" high. but how high is it with the roof rack on?

My garage door is only 80 inches high and am planning a lift ( 3 inch ) when my FJ comes in.

thanks peeps

Good Luck getting any feedback, I hope you get a better response than I did. I posted the same question without a single response. I also asked here but didn't get any feedback so I posted the question I linked above.

My FJ with rack sits right at 79" in stock configuration. So,if you get one with a rack, you won't be able to put a lift on without doing some remodelling. My garage door opening is ~85" and I was hoping to go with some new coilovers and considering some 285's but I don't know how much that will equate to in actual additional height.

To me, it is an important thing to know. Just today I had to pull into a parking garage with a 7' height warning. I know I could fit with some margin because I measured it before. But, I guess I'm a bit anal about these things.

Re: Question for all u people with rulers

Wouldn't it be easier to spend $1.99 for a tape measure and go measure it than to complain? Give me 3 minutes and I'll go measure.

80-1/2" to the top of the highest clamp on the roof rack.
