Mine fit with 1" or so to spare . but have standard Z travel. Make sure the counter weight is secured ,during transport. Easily done with 2 pieces of 1/2" black pipe about 12-18" long. These are placed through the two holes in column and through the counter weight and through holes on opposite side of column (machine will need to be powered to line up holes)
Another experience i will share is that most lift trucks that are capable of unloading machine from truck will not fit through garage door, due to height of mast. So you will be able to place inside garage but will need a plan to move further. If you don't have access to machine moving skates, you could use several 4' lengths of pipe to roll machine on.
