Re: stopping power
but i got antique plates and insurance still on it but that is pretty much so it can sit in my front yard and keep the codes and compliance off my ass . . . only costs me like 70 bucks a year to keep it (tags for life)

Re: stopping power
Gotcha, you must have a hookup on an inspection.
I would have figured you would have gotten truck plates with as high as it is going to sit now. You have to be like 18" over the legal height. lol

Re: stopping power
I think it's like 47 to the frame? can't remember measured it before . . . and antique I don't have to get it insepcted
but yeah if i even pulled it out on the street to go to 7-11 (which is 2 blocks threw my neighborhood and no main roads) i'd probably get a ticket long as the truck is high

Re: stopping power
Don't even think about driving on these highways if there are more than 28 inches between the bumpers and the road if your truck falls in the 4,500-pound GVWR rating. For 4,501 to 7,500 pounds, the front bumper must stay lower than 29 inches and the rear 30 inches; for 7,501 and 15,000 pounds, it's 30 at the front and 31 at the rear.
So yeah.. you're probably a good 18"+ over the legal limit. I'd be scared to drive that thing... it's asking to be pulled over.
