Here's what mine looks like in front of the garage [not the best angle, but hope it gives somewhat of an idea]

I measured the opening and I have 81" to play with, any one have any measurements of their Jeeps? Thanks for the input, but now I'm getting worried.

With my soft top on, at the tallest point which would be over the rib over the soundbar or the one behind it, I'm measuring it to be between 80.5" - 81.2". And that's with the RC 4" Lift and 315/75R16s which measure up to be around a 33.82" in Diameter by calculation or close to 34" in actual measurement. Let me know if this helps. I'd think if you had a Hard top or no top, it may be a touch lower.

Interceptor 1972, thanks for measuring for me. I have a steep incline leading up to my garage so that should help me. I just pulled in my stock Jeep Unlimited X and stopped right as the windshield frame was entering the garage. From the top of the windshield frame to the garage door opening I have 16". I would think that I wouldn't get more that 16" out of a 4" lift and 35's. Will know for sure on Friday when its all installed. Thanks again for the help.

You're welcome MALIK. Is it a JK with a soft top or a hard top? If it's a soft top, your highest point will not be at the windshield frame but more at the bow above the sound bar where the rib pushes up against the soft top. And depending on what tires you go with, your 35s may measure in around the high 33" to low/mid 34" range.
