I see that the 2019s have that new shark fin antennae on the roof that sticks up. Does anybody know how high that sticks up, how much taller it is than the previous version, and if it can be replaced with the previous version? I test fit my garage with a 2018 and it cleared by about an inch, but now I’m worried that shark fin is going to stick up too high and a stupid antenna is going to prevent me from getting in the garage.
On a stock truck (I.e. factory rake) the highest point of the truck is still the back of the cab by the brake light. It's only if you level your truck that the shark fin becomes the highest point of the cab. At least that is what happened to me on a reverse level.

Thats good news. After all the research and everything I did to make sure it would fit, to have a stupid new antenna be the thing gets in the way would just p*** me off to no end.
I should pick up my truck later today. I am worried that the shark fin will cause an issue. I ordered a F350 SRW 6.7 CCSB Fx4.
If you could report back on the affect of the fin, that would be great. If it’s going to be an issue, I can start planning for changes now before the truck comes.

I picked up the truck. There was a wreck on I-10 (no surprise). By the time I got home it was time to take the wife to dinner so i will have to wait until tomorrow to do any specific measurements. I will update after I check. Attached is a picture. I am thinking it MIGHT be a little taller than the rear of the cab but not sure yet. It will be close either way.
Ok, managed to get time to pull it in on my side of the garage. My seal on the bottom of the garage door header is 82.5" You can see that there is a little clearance for the shark fin. I have a bunch of crap in my garage on my side so I can't pull all the way in to check the rear of the cab. I still think the shark fin might be the tallest thing on the roof. I will try to get the shark fin and the rear of the roof measured tomorrow to see what is the tallest part.
Here is the pic. Shark fin LTE Antenna on 2019 F350 CCSB 6.7. No sno plow or camper package.
I can't quite make out how your door works but assuming it's a somewhat regular overhead door, you probably have stops that stop the door when it's all the way up. You may be able to adjust it by a few inches and get it to go a little further and lift the end a bit higher.
