Ford Transit hight with penthouse

Hi I have a 2019 Ford Transit 250 low roof 148” wheelbase cargo van that is currently waiting for a penthouse installation.My van is 2 wheel drive with stock tires and rims.Is there anybody out there with this setup that could give me an accurate measurement on the hight please. Sportsmobile could only give me a rough guess and there were no other vans there to measure.I ask because I have a carport that I plan to park under the lowest point is 89” if I need to lift it some I could do so while I wait thank you for any help.

Welcome to the Forum Rickster!

Guessing you may not have looked at the Colorado Camper Van pop top for the Transit? If not too late, highly recommend you check it out before SMB does the top.

Where are you located? (Location can be added to your profile)

Won't fit under his 89" carport though. I don't think any poptop will fit that low honestly.

Good luck!
