Would any of you be so kind and measure the height of your jeep with a 3" lift and 35" tires... That would rock, thanks.

OME HD springs 3 1/2" up front 3" in back
315/70/R17 at 35psi on 17x9" wheels
steel rear bumper and tire carrier

I gained about 5 inches total and pretty sure I sit about 6' 5" - 6' "6

I can clear parking garages that are as low as 6' 8".....haven't tried any lower.

Way too many variable for those general terms. Different lifts, different curb weight due to accessories, different actual tire measurements....

In the ballpark would 6' 3-5" to top of windshield.
My set-up is around 6" 4"

Assuming the lift is actually 3" and tha the tires are actually 35" that would add 4.5" to the standard height of 70.8" (with hard top, add 2-3" more for a soft top) for a height of ~75.3". I would plan for +/- 3" due to varying lift heights, tire sizes, etc.

Measured it a few days ago to make sure I'd clear a 7 foot garage.
BARELY clears but it does fit. Every Jeep is different.

I have no carpet, back seat or extra crap on board weighing it down.
Also run 40 psi in my tires and have heavy duty spring rate OMEs in the rear. No spare tire on board either.

35" tires, 3" lift with hardtop my 2 door is 82" at the highest point in the back above the rear window.

Tires and lift are accurate within a 1/2", roof height is actual.
