YA i have one if you want me to post it for you all .... i got hit for
Truck ht, Frame ht, Tires, no mud flaps , no mud side guards , lamp light to high , TINT to DARK even thou its Fooking factory tint from 1994 built in to the glass SOB and ... anyway i went to court and my fine was 900 $ dollars.. so ya with that said i am limited to what i am allowed to do ..
i hate cali ... But i love the surf dudes




-----------------------------------------
What you can do is dependent on the GVWR. If your truck's is 4,500 pounds, the maximum frame height is
27 inches. If the GVWR is 4,501 to 7,500 pounds, it's 30 inches, and for 7,501 - to 10,000-pounders, it's
31 inches. Also keep in mind that the lowest portion of the body floor can't be more than 5 inches above the top of the frame.

wow cali really sucks...if they keep this up ****s gonna hit the fan...i know lots of trucks that will not deliver in or out of cali because they are so stupidly retarted with their pollution crap with the big rigs and their no idle laws...big rigs need to idle...simple as that, the only way to get out of it is to have a pet or passenger....if they go any further with their dumb laws these truckers are gonna park their rigs and then everyone will be F'd becuase california is being retarded


if you get $900 fines for your truck why dont you lower the damn thing? makes no sense to keep it that high they are just gonna keep nailin you and take you for everything youre worth

Thanks a lot Bud! Have you done anything to your 302 yet? Are you going to build it?

How's your flareside set up? What engine has it got?
