Lifted Height

Anyone got a total height with factory rack and OME 3" lift? I'm a bit concerned about clearing my garage with the yakima bike rack on top.

If you REALLY wanted it to fit, dig 2 paths in the ground for your tires to go through.

Or you could air down every time you pull in the garage.

Re: Lifted Height

You guy's are lucky, Mine didn't fit when it was stock. I guess a midget must have built my house. Now with 3" lift & 285's the windshield would hit the top of the door frame. I like the idea of digging tire ruts to make it fit.

Actually, that isn't too bad an idea. I'll only need a 1/2 inch or so so I could grind down the concrete directly under the door. I sell the equipment capable of doing it so....

Re: Lifted Height

Put on adjustable air suspension....lower for garage...raise for wheeling. LOL

I have the ToyTec 3" OME lift sitting on Nitto 295x70x17 tires with factory rack...and can measure this evening if you still need more numbers. Just shoot me a PM
