Re: my truck is officially too big... damn NC lift laws...
After being cut off in my (previous) CRX on a highway by a dumptruck going 5mph, I'm glad these laws are in place. Not only did I splatter the inside of the CRX with my hemoglobin, I was knocked unconscious and got a nice ~40 stitches to my face.
The picture you posted should make it clear to you why they have those laws.

what ------- court systems do you guys have that the cop comes to the court date?
does every cop who writes any ticket to anyone have to be at all of the court dates?
to the op, that is way to high. at least here in WI your headlights can only be so high.
and jd, just paying for commercial status or whatever you suggested will not allow a truck to have any bumper height, look at the back of any semi and you can see the lowered bumper that is REQUIRED now, same with the front i think my corolla has higher bumpers then most semis.
and if you think that truck is cool just remind yourself its a gm

And what JD was talking about wasnt commercial status, it was weight class (if i understood correctly). In NJ, im pretty sure the amount of lift you can have is directly related to the weight of the truck, so if you get it classified as a heavier truck you can lift more (not sre if thats possible though).
