Can someone please tell me the height of a 80 series with a 2"lift plus big muddies. I need to build a new carport for my 80 series I've just bought and would like a roller door on it but worried it won't fit after I put the lift on and bigger tyres so I need someone who has lifted their cruiser to tell me what the overall height is please. Need to get the carport done before I get the lift or it will have to sit out in the street and I've already had one car stolen, vandalism to another and broken into another, so I don't want to leave it out in the street for too long.
Thanks Toni

2m or 2.1m or 2.8m or 3.7m all depends on the big muddies :roll:

Why not measure your car height, add 2" for the suspension lift then add whatever extra the bigger tyres you want is to that and then a couple of inches for safety.

My 80 with 2" lift and 285/75/16's(roughly 33") makes it under 2.0 mtrs easily. But I went 2.1 with my rollerdoor so I can make it in with roof racks when I use them :idea: , but I can't drive in with anything on the roof racks!

my 5 cents...
