Overall Height with Hood Straight Up

[renovate7]

I've seen a few pictures with the hood up. It looks like it is quite a bit taller than the cab/cargo cover. Can anyone measure the height with the hood straight up? I want to make sure I've got enough height under this incoming carport. Thanks.

Still need help with this. I scaled off some pictures and it look like it is over 11' with the hood opened and straight up. Can anyone get a measurement? I have to finalize the order for this metal carport tomorrow. Thanks

I just went out to the shop and measured. From the ground to the cowling, I measured right at 6'. Then I measured the length of the hood, approximately 4' 3", which gives you a total height of about 10' 3". Hope this helps.

Better get extra large......

Thank you both for the help. I'm changing the leg height from 9' to 10'. This is a "Carolina Carport". Metal roof with legs. It looks like I'll have 12' 4" clear inside at the peak with 10' legs. I want to leave room for overhead lights etc. I poured the slab last Friday. 6" concrete, 3000psi, 2 layers wire, 18hx12w mono footer. Last thing I wanted to do is pull in and have the hood hit the roof before it's open all the way.

Build it plenty big. Who knows, one day you might want to get a 5 ton with super singles.
