Default Jeep fits under 7 ft garage door no problem!

I recently lifted my jeep with the aev 3.5 (5 inches in the front and 3 inches in the back) with 37 inch tires and it fits with 3 inches to spare! I think it would be no problem to run 40's and still fit as long as you didnt lift your jeep more! Tube fenders instead of lift, keep it as low as possible!

Just showing how much clearance is left.


As you can see I measured at the highest point of the soft top to the wood at the top of the garage opening. There's about 5 inches not counting the seal which is flexible anyways.



In these pictures you can see how much space is between the top of the jeep and the top of the garage door.

You've got a similar setup as me! A Jeep and a Street Glide (or maybe yours is an Electra). Either way, great taste! And NICE JEEP!

Great looking JK. I have a 2dr and thinking about the same setup within the next couple of weeks. Just worried about rubbing issues on the trail with the 37's and that lift..
