Height of 2017 wrangler rubicon
Hello,
New here and kind of new to Jeep :-/
Just got me a new Jeep Rubicon Hard Rock model (2017) and already ordered the Metalcloak Game Changer 2.5" lift (6pak). I'm interested in 35" tires and a Gobi rack. The only thing that concerns me is the height - I want to make sure it fits in my garage. I know that the Gobi rack is approx. 8" above. Is there anybody here with the 2.5"-3.5" lift with 35" tires that can measure how tall is their Jeep?
Would really appreciate it!

That is a tough one. I don't know how high the rack is above the roof of a JK. I know that i have 40s on my Jeep and I clear the garage door but just by an inch or two.

The Gobi rack is 8" I'm almost positive it won't fit :(
Thank you!

Mine is 2016, but I can't think of any changes to the vehicle height in 2017.
With 2.5" lift and 35" mud terrains (2k miles on the jeep/tires so full tread), mine is 75.5" at the back of the hard top. Front is 75 even. Keep in mind that if you plan to carry a high lift etc around most of the time, you may need another couple inches.
My Gobi will be installed Feb 21 for a ski trip shortly after.
Good of luck to you!
