Would you be so kind to measure the actual total height of the truck after the mid perch adjustment. It looks like the roof is now level and did not actually raise the total height of the truck, but I need to be sure. I need to know if it will fit in garage. Thanks for the help.

For all the mid-perchers out there

Have an appointment to have mine done next week. I've seen a post on here saying that the ride is actually better at mid. Seems to me it would be stiffer, just wondering if there are any cons to going up to mid. Thanks!

I'll get a pic for you after this weekend. My door is the standard height too & I fit after mid perch. I had about 4" to spare before.

It's tough to measure the height of the truck, but easy to compare to something you can drive under.

Here I sit at Firestone, waiting on them doing the mid-perch, cam kits and lifetime alignment. For $550, seems high but I guess I got the raptor tax added and I will be back after TRR for another alignment. :)

Be carefull at Firestone. Make sure they are using the alignment hubs that go over the tire and do not connect to your rim. They will scratch your beauty rings on that pretty special edition beadlock.

I had them take the beauty rings off on all four wheels. Told them to use blue locktite and torque them back on when done to 47.9lbs

Some pics, they are still working on it. Guy at firestone seems pretty good, I was told he was their best suspension guy and I waited for him to come in this morning.
