Lift Laws?

not meant to be smart a$$, ask your friendly state patrol officer at the local regional office. They usually have flyers on how to register a home made trailer/vehicle/motorcycle and other helpfull info about the legality of certaim "modifications".

NOTE: If you might think that you are going to "violate" one of the rules, then do the "asking" in another county.

44" high headlamps. Heck I probably exceed that right now! Try www.customtruckshowcase.com. Looks like you've got one of the most restrictive lift laws in the country. I like Wyoming's "vehicle must be in safe working condition."

Arizona's ain't bad either. "Mudflaps required on lifted trucks."

And South Dakota seems, like Wyoming, the place for lifted trucks.

How can they? Measued mine last night and they (middle) sit right at 45". 250 and I don't even have the snow-plow package. Just something to use "IF" they want to pull u over. Jeeez!

I checked a few sites. 2 were 44". and one was 54". So I was thinking 44". But that just seems to strict!
