Oooops
 

:mad: I was in third gear pulling up hill with comp on 5x5 and out of the blue a rookie cop pulls me over for excessive noise and acceleration. [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] I meant :mad: Any way he wrote me four tickets for nothing. Good thing he was on the exhaust side becuase he couldn't hear me burnin rubber :D . Its stack time baby.


p.s. anyone else have this pleasure?

p.p.s I cant believe this cop could hate my wicked bad sounding Cummins [yuk]

Four tickets??? You call that pleasure??? WOW. That sounds expensive to me..............................

i did get a warning for excessive smoke. he told me next time ill get a ticket.[laugh] [laugh]

You have not had one for the jacked truck? Thought they were hot on that, must have stock bumper hight.

:rolleyes: the four tickets were mostly just because my address isnt current on my licence and registration sticker not visible...etc. Only one for the noise.Like I said , he was a newjack. Still, sucks to get any ticket [yuk]

Heres my so called "broken muffler"

ive had warnings for no mud flaps and no fender flares. the lift is within legal limits. they have measured it a time or two.

I know that they measure lift hieght in Utah form the gound tho the lowest point on the frame. So a chevy has the advantage here because that is all you see is frame. I for 3/4 ton it is 27"

In Oregon if your bumber is x number of inches off the ground you have to get mud flaps. A few years ago I got a ticket in my old chevy(1973), it had a 6" lift and 36" swampers. Funny thing is I can't remember exactly how high your bumber can be but I think my chevy was to high stock. I put mud flaps on and took a pic and sent that with a check to the court. They sent my check back.

Jim can you give me some info on those traction bars in your pictures?

I got my flares the same time I got my lift,
got a kinda warning about the mudflaps when I got it inspected, they said they'd pass me,
but said I could still get pulled over for the lack of them,
so I fixed that ASAP.


I've never been bugged about anything about my truck, but know of at least 3 others in Utah with the same size lift, same size tires, and they got nothing but headaches from law enforcement.

I love being in Texas.:D

yeah me too....except for 90% of the year when its too damned hot to breathe.....

Hot? What's hot? I only know scorching and sizzling. What's this hot term you speak of?[laugh]

Just the universals from the local four-by shop. I love those things. they do a great job for sand ,snow ,and burnin rubber :D :D
