    I believe my friend bought it off of you. OME, IPF, 35s. Pretty rare truck to begin with, so it must be the one. He has a sas's x cab as well.

    Can anyone confirm that blackout/ light shaded tail lights would fail recon? Also front head light bulbs have been changed with corners being a blue color, would this also fail?

    I'm assuming it won't pass recon as those blue markers definitely won't pass a safety check.

    Yup, blue won't pass. The blacked out tail lights might fail also.

    Thanks for the feed back guys, I did manage to pass safety but I suppose I'll definitely fail recon.

    Anyone know if Recon requires speedo correction for larger tires too?

    I don't think so. the inspector I had didn't even look under the rear. just checked under the hood, dropped his yard stick down the fenders and gave it a quick walk around. you should be all g.

    yup, what @jimbo808 said...

    If my tires come in next week, I'll be taking my truck there to get my paperwork updated with the 35's.

    Did anyone get their window tint tested at recon? I forgot to post this a couple weeks ago, but I went in and failed for window tint... I wasn't expecting them to check tint at all, but sure enough he came out with a tint meter thingy and tested windshield and front 2 windows. I thought this was an item that got inspected at safety and not recon. Also, they did not check speedo correction for oversized tires, nor did the guy look for a spare tire.
