Although im not sure about where yall are but there are like 3 of these trucks around the Hampton Roads area that are lowerd and those dipshits think those 5.3 are just fast as ----. a flowmaster and a 50 shot from Jegs and watch the ---- out they are ready to line up next to anything.

Yeah that lift kit is pretty pointless. I guess it's all for looks. I know it ain't got the power to put those tires to work. I know a few people with trucks lifted way up that have recently gotten tickets in them. I mean ----, I have friends that build badass trucks but they trailor them to competitions. Not drive them on the street. Dollar says my 86' Trooper II on 33's and 3" lift will go anywhere that chevy will.

And yeah if the cop just wrote you a ticket, and didn't measure the bumpers or take pics, you could drop the truck some to get it legal and fight it in court. put the stock wheel/tires on it and see what your ride height is then.

If you can park your car under your truck, then it is too high.

That truck probably has open diffs so it wouldn't make it through those ruts either, or it would just flop on its side :P

i bet stock dakota will go any where that chevy will go. i knew a guy with an excursion about that height and that size tire and that thing would get stuck in its front yard
