So my truck failed inspection misserably...
#61
I don't know what time of year is the most stressful, tax time or inspection time.
Yeah I was thinking more along the lines of D-boys and the such instead of ricers. Although ANY vehicle, lifted or lowered, should have to undergo the modified sticker not just lifted trucks. Mini trucks should be in the category also. I have only once heard of a shop failing a mini truck for a insection sticker and that was just because the whole front suspension was shot.
Was a 95 s10 with a 5/6 drop and no C notch, lol. Riding in that thing with his 4 wheeler in the back was horrible, cause with that weight, the axle was sitting on the frame. His entire steering was shot, idler and pitman arms shot, all of that was what made him fail. Hope all goes well tomarrow Benedict, to bad your not in WV you'd have a vertical inspection sticker like mine.

Lucky. Here, if you're registered in one of the counties that require testing, the car has to be older than 24 years to be exempt.

And what ever you do, do not disconnect the battery before you run the emissions. If you do you will have to wait until itrechecks everything in the computer/readiness again.

I thought my 92 was old enough to not have emissions, but since WV doesn't do emissions testing I wasn't sure. It's funny though, they make sure your complete exhaust is intact and not altered, ie the catalytic converter because if federal law, even though my state doesn't test the exhaust system.
Normally a couple hours of varied driving and idle periods and you'll get the computer back on track for your OBD II system readings.

it's funny you mention the others. there's some guy around town with a '90(ish) Chevy 1/2 ton sitting on 24's or 26's.
looks totally f**k'd-up! i'll see if he's parked long enough next time i see his truck around, to grab a pic. i swear, all this kid does is drive around town.
guess he wants to make sure everyone sees his hoops.
and here in Ontario, it's only exempt if it's an '87 or older model.
when our Ontario Drive Clean program first came out, it was supposed to be only for vehicles 24 yrs old & newer.
but the tree huggers cried enough to have that changed.
