Yikes. Just made the first call on this. He said that you have to replace everything but the door itself. He said that this motor is designed to pull back and would need to be replaced with one that is designed to pull up. The spring would have to go as well . . . bottom line $1600. I'm not sure two additional inches of clearance on the TM is worth quite that much but I'll make a couple more calls. One thing that was very interesting was that he said if you're in for an inch you might as well be in for a mile and it would probably only cost an addition $50 or so to take it all the way up to the ceiling.
