My exterior height?

[wingfoot]

I've not been able to find the exterior height of my 08' 3400RE Bighorn. The reason I ask is we are traveling through an area with limited tunnel/overpass heights. Short of climbing on the roof and measuring my rig I don't know how to find out.

Thanks in advance for any information..

Found this with all the specs toward the bottom 3400RE Specs

You should measure your own trailer and not go by a brochure or someone else's height if you are going through a limited height area. I have heard that some owners have put a 1X2X10 on top of the highest object like the a/c. You can then measure the height from a ladder without climbing on top of the trailer.

Low bridge, 11'8" tall - with FLASHING LIGHTS indicating over-height vehicle approaching... and they STILL try to fit under. Doh!

We haven't measured ours, but the specs say 12'9"... I get nervous at the 14' signs...but so far, we've made it under all those just fine.

I agree that this is a must.
I believe my height was listed at
12' 11"
My actual height is 13' 2" at the highest point, which is the front
A/C.
I will not crawl under anything less
than 13' 6" minimum. Trace

I am measured at 13-1 at the front ac and today I went under a 13-6 that I have seen a few 18 wheelers stuck under. They do have a sign that trucks must use left lane though. I will admit that I was nervous though. Lol

I measured the height to the top of my front A/C at 13"-3". I always check the clearance height of any trestle or bridge under which I must travel.

I have always used a 2x4 long enough to reach from the highest AC to a little past the side of the fiver. Then I put a level on top of the 2x4 to make sure it is level. Measure from the bottom of the 2x4 to the ground. I write this measurement down on a piece of paper and affix to the dash of my truck.
