Default Kargo Master Roof Rack

I am thinking of putting a roof rack on my lifted JK to haul my camping gear and toys. My problem is that after I put the rack on I am afraid the jeep is going to be too tall to fit in the garage. Does anyone know how far above the windshield the rack will stick up, and how far the rack will be off of my rear bumper? Thanks

Not home right now but I have 2" AEV lift, 35's, and a Congo cage. It barely fits under the garage door on a standard 7 foot garage door. Hope that helps!

FYI. I have a cargo master and it is pretty loud. Sorry, no garage. I can take some measurements when I get home.

I get 5 inch from roof to top of bar up front and 50 inches from bumper to top of rack in the rear. I used the rope trick up front to reduce highway noise, but with 2 kayaks on top its loud non the less. Great rack tho. Hope this helps. Note. that rear measurement is from the upper part of bumper.
