    I am going to be lifting my 2012 Tacoma. 6.5" lift on 35" A/T tires. How much taller will it actually be and will it clear a standard size garage height?

    this and that...
    thats one of the main reasons why i didnt go with a 6". dont want to risk my truck not fitting in my garage. icon 3.5 is already cutting it kinda close. would ne kinda sad if i had to leave my baby in the elements. my mazda on the other hand >=).

    Measure the current height of your truck (assuming it's stock), add 8.5". Measure the garage opening. ;)

    I just measured. I have 1'3" of space so if its only an 8" height change after 6.5" lift and 35's I should be good
