Just make sure your wife is sitting in it every time you drive in and out.

Why are you all living in houses with these tiny garage entrances?

Standard garage entrance is 7' or 84".

I measured the Red wildtrak 2 door and it was right around 82” or so from the ground to the top of the roof rack. Maybe slightly lower but to be safe assume 82”.

Yup, I calculated 75.3 inches in my reply above but it's great to get a real world measurement. Thanks so much!

Probably both right. Straight calc is about a 1/2” higher. Actual measurements lose a bit of tire flattening on the pavement.

We have two winners!!!

Pretty much have to air down/up everyday.

If you encounter parking garages in your travels, anything over 6’4” could be a problem.

I heard a tale about a friend of a friend.(may not even be true lol) His Jeep didn’t fit in the garage so he did a suckdown winch on the front and rear bumper to get in his garage, and then released it when the door was closed LOL.

Probably be closer to 79". The Sasq will have an extra inch of tire height and about .5" from heavier springs. Added to the 77.4" w/rails.... Any additional lift and it's not fitting in my garage. So I guess it's staying in the driveway.

I had the same issue my 2003 f250 with 6 in lift and 37s wouldnt fit in garage ,i cut the opening and plated it and my garage guy got me a zero clearance door and rail . It was so nice to have it inside as i live on the coast and rust never sleeps! Hope this helps.

Not sure that is exactly correct. I don't think the height listed on the dimensions sheet for the Badlands is for the Sasquatch package with 35 inch tires. I think it is non-Sasquatch with 33 inch tires.

77.4 for standard BL. 78.8 for SQ. It's all there in the post.

Thanks for pointing it out. My fault. I read the original post too fast. I deleted my post.

My title search came up empty so Follow up question. What is the width with mirrors extended? I Can't seem to find that dimension. My 2007 Toyota Tundra was only a 7/8 full size truck and both mirrors had tell tail white paint from occasional door trim contact. In truth that we had about 1-2 inches of clearance, but the lineup is only so precise every single day. My Toyota Highlander with the extra clearance makes the line up with much less effort. Folding in a passenger-side (non-power fold) mirror each time might really be the final nail in the coffin. I can't fold the driver side since otherwise the vehicle ends up too close to the wife's (and kids) whip and that ended in a door ding on my Tundra once. Without a Black MIC top or Painted Modular, I'm getting a soft top, it is not living in my driveway. I want the doors off parked in the garage experience in the summer.

Thanks for the thread link! Could not find the link from build and price to vehicle specifications. I'm hoping that the (projected) has been confirmed as the actual width by now.

At 86.2" It will give me about 2 inches on each side.
