4" IRO w/ Long arms + 32" Tires

This is the lift I plan to put on my 03 WJ, I'm hoping someone out there has this combo and could measure there Jeeps total height (ground to roof rack) I need to know if my Jeep would fit into the garage after lifted. Right now I measure 14" from my roof rack to the frame around the garage door, stock.
Thanks in advance

i think it should fit.

14-(4+2.5)=7.5" afterwards.


4" lift plus half the size increase in tires. i doubt you are running 27s stock but 5" larger take half, the part that will be lifting from ground to hub. so my clacs are over estimated to give some play room. i cant imagine you having problems fitting in

Yea I am running a 4" with 3/4" sapcers and 265/75/16 tires and I am probably sitting some around 7.5'. I know that there are some parking garages that I can not go into because I am sitting too high. I dont have my rack on my jeep right now or I would go measure for you. sorry.

I don't think he has anything on his roof, he is just talking about to the top of the rails

yeah. i dont know what size the stocks are for WJs so i inflated it to give some room for error. i would assume they are 29s but i went 27s just in case.

wheres the 1.25 come from?

I assumed you figured there was a 2.5" tire diff so I just halved it....but yeah either way your over-estimate was probably fine

Yeah he just was using the highest estimation possible going from a 27" tire to a 32. If you have 14 inchs of clearence now, youll be fine after.
