I was gonna fab up a new piece of bumper to lower its height to make me legal but be removable for wheeling clearence, and it will give me a place to mount some new lights

I've drivin a truck with 35's on the street for years. I always thought the cop was to measure the middle of the headlight to the groud . And how can they inforce a law when cops are not educated in automobles, by that I mean make, model, year ect...

How are you going to lower the frame?

Didnt plan on lowering the frame, I figure if I make an attempt to be somewhat legal they wont screw with me to much. They aint to bad now but the less reasons they can pull me over for the better

woody11769

i wouldnt worry about it  boggerram  till you get stoped im sure it'll pass to many big trucks with to much money in them to make everyone lower them ...........I hope  lol
