Find a friendly service station that does NJ Inspections and hope for the best.

What part of the state are you from?

Maybe someone down near you can jump in here to help you out with a local inspection garage.

What items did they fail the truck on? Emissions, brakes, suspension? You have 45 days to correct problems, if not ,you can bring it back and get additional 45 days, you can still use truck.

"Steering Lash". WOW. The last time I had steering lash checked was on my '87 3/4 ton when I had stability testing done in Lodi for the 7" of lift I had installed...

Steering lash is probably excessive play,maybe bad tie-rods or steering arm, emissions can be several different items, on your printout, does it show high hc or co readings?
