I have a 3.5 RK and 315/70R17 aka 34's, and I only have about 1.5-2.0 clearance getting in the garage, when I make the jump to 37's I'm pretty sure it won't fit.

SHIT and SHIT! I guess i'll have to put the steel bumpers on earlier than expected to see maybe if the weight will help. The funny thing is on my 12 Rubicon, my AEV 4.5 (Runs a little over 5" I think), plus a 1" spacer and 38" Muds fit in the garage. I was hoping this RK 5.5 would have been about the same size. I'm going to chance it and worst case scenario change out to the 3.5 springs with flat fenders. Thanks guys, very much appreciate the help.

I have the 5.5 long arm with 40" MTRs and mine fits in the 83" garage opening

Really????? That gives me hope. I just went out and measured mine and its 83" as well. I am hoping for the best. If yours fits on 40" MTRs and those run true to size, I should be good. Any pics of your beast?

The pics show the setup with the ride height at 81" tall at the highest point, so I went up another inch to give me a little more up travel.

So you have coil overs that you can adjust up and down? Im thinking from what everyone else has posted that the regular 5.5 Mid Arm springs will sit higher? I'll soon find out I guess, kit is ordered. Good looking rig BTW.
