    3/4" huh? That's a little tighter than fitting my truck into my garage. :thumbs:

    My clearance lights push on the rubber on the bottom of the garage door...I guess that would be zero clearance!

    I would say so. You'll even need to pay attention to the overall height of tires when you need new ones. That's a squeaker.

    Good point, I got new tires recently...I only had it in the garage twice in 10 years to put new brakes on, so it really is not an issue!

    Many times garage doors/openers don't go 100% the whole way up...the opener can be adjusted so that they do though...gives you the whole door opening height...which sometimes that last inch or two makes all the difference...

    Can you adjust the springs or stops to get any more height?
    Edit i see Dave already mentioned that.

    You might find low profile lights also
