Default garage plus jeep

Hey guys Im trying to figure out if once I put my 6.5 in lift on the jeep with 33s if ill be able to get it out of the garage. Im 6.2 and standing next to the door I have about a foot above me. So I'm assuming its a 7 foot door. Any one have a clue?

If you don't put a rack or tire up there you should be fine. Mine runs a 4.5" w/31"s and sits at about 6 feet, so yours should set about 3" higher than mine.

I was thinking about putting the stock tires back on it and doing it that way. I'm sure that would drop it a good 3 inches.
