Truck Height

Soon, I will start putting my truck together and able to get it into my garage. What I'm wondering is, "Will the damn thing fit?"

I have a 77 F250 4x4 (highboy) and I'm planning on putting 35 inch tires on it. I'm keeping it stock height so it has the 4 inch factory lift. Will the truck clear the standard 7 ft door I have on my garage?

my 79 f350 fits through my 7ft doors with 36's and no lift, and cab lights and a headache rack. it sat the same height as my 77highboy with 31's on both. if u put it together in the garage and cant get it out you can let the air out of the tires or put smaller ones on

Thanks again for all the replys. I do want to put the cab lights back on at some point and possible a roll bar, but for now, I just want to make sure it fits at stock height and 35s.
