    Sorry, buts thats Spanish to me at this point..


    Yep...... Had to go back in when I put on my bumper, so yes..

    And my tires do stick out just a hair.. but I do have aftermarket mud flaps, so it looks more like I am trying to conform.. Wonder if your DIY mup flaps made the guy more of a stickler..

    like ive been saying those inspectors dont know anything. even more so they hired new guys to do inspections one guy will fail you but the the next day you go back a different guy will pass you for the same items.


    exhaust has to exit passed the last operating window

    1/8th they should of passed you did they take a ruler and measure?

    I jus messaged Sarah for WT mudflaps but diy mudflaps or flares dont matter. My fren used a whole rubber floor mat to cover his 15x14s.

    But i have a stock exhaust on my truck but ill be taking both my cherrybomb setup an my mbrp turn down setup tomorrow and ask about it. Both past the cab.

    What have you done to your truck lately
    It has to be mounted on the truck for it to be written down for recon papers.

    exhaust should be fine, it dumps after the cab so it really doesn't matter if it exits the bed or not.

    I think if you have an aftermarket exhaust, it needs to be on the paper, but it'll just say 'aftermarket' with everything else.

    I hope I get the inspector I had the last time. You figure they would have discussed the requirements with each other so they are all on the same page. :cheers:

    Right? If I get the inspector that failed Kaleo, I'm going to ask for the original inspector I had to come look at my truck.
