Is it illegal to lower the 4x4?

[1FunRide4Jr]

I've been driving this lifted rig all around PA for a couple of years now, and I've never had a problem with inspection, or getting pulled over.

However, I borrowed my friend's lowered truck one time, and got pulled over within an hour. They hit me up for dark tint.

You'll be fine with the springs you mentioned. Only way i could see it being an issue is if you were driving around scraping your H-pipe and with so much negative camber on your front wheels you could drive on your side. Only then will you grab the attention of inspection personell and/or cops who will ticket you.

I've never seen insurance people go to an accident and measure the ride hight of a car only lowered 1"-2" at most.

The key is subtleness, and a small drop like that won't make a huge impact on the vehicle in an accident or enough to notice. Besides, the Ford springs have Ford part numbers on them anyway, so it would be hard to tell.


Now if you want to spraypaint your taillights black or drive around with blinding HID headlights and get into an accident, you could be found partially responsible.

Thanks I feel better now, now i just need $$ for shocks, struts, and springs

as long as you dont drop your car 3" your generally fine... and the thing i go with in cali is the headlight... it has to be like 22" or something.

It's also illegal to drive with yout fog/driving lights on during a clear night, but everyone does it.

Apparently it's ALSO illegal to drive with our fog lights and ambers on even during broad day light because ""they are parking lights""
got pulled over by a sheriff for it

Im pretty sure there is a minimum distance from the center of the headlights to the ground as well. I know they had a show on MTV about street racing and the cops where talking about that.
