Roof height on k30 with 6 inch lift and 35's
 

I'm building a 1985 k30 and would like to go with a 6 inch lift and 35's. But i would like to know what my overall roof height is going to be. If anyone could help me out I'd really appreciate it.

Do you want cab height or cab light height? Alot of K30's have cab lights is why I ask. Are you trying to measure to see if you can fit in a garage or something?

Cab light height would be prefered if possible but figured i could figure the difference for the lights, and yes trying to figure for garage clearance.

The answer is no to drive through and no to parking decks!!! Ill try and get a measurement from my buddies '86

Alright thanks it'd be really helpful.

Ur not gonna get an accurate response. There are a lot of variables to get exact height. I've seen a variance from different manufacturers in 6" lifts by up to 1-1/2". Thy are not all that accurate. But the biggest will be tire size. There are a lot of tires that don't even come close to there advertised size (BFG, MT, etc...) And then factor in rim width. Just saying don't hold any measurements you get to be spot on.

I'd just like a rough idea, but im planning on a rough country 6 in, and 35x12.50 bfg km2 tires on 16.5x9.75 wide steel wheels.
