Well it was only 56.00 dollars but what was funny is when I called the County Sheirf Dept they told me that the law was 30 inches from the lowest part of your frame. That is what I posted a long time ago. In which I past with 29 3/4. But then he starts measuring everything from bumper to lights and even the suspension itself. Well I just found out that the front headlights can not go over 54 inch from the ground to the center of the light. Well I was at 56 inches so he said.
Here is the kicker, if I was good with the lights and everything I was still going to get a ticket for altering my suspension more than 2 inches. So basically I was screwed no matter what. And what else is funny is I drive to Florida about twice a month to truck shows and no problem. But when I drive around this military post they give me a hard time.
Some times I think I am not in Ga anymore.... lol

Nothing like a jealous Officer handing out "chicken ass" tickets. I've been pulled over and harassed for random things before in towns outside of mine. I just take the ticket and tell them I won't come thru and spend money in their town anymore. God forbid if there are nice, well taken care of vehicles driving around.

I REALLY hate cops like that, I know they have a job to do and all that but they don't need to be @$$'s about it just out to screw people over and get them for any little thing.

What is funny the military MP's did not write the ticket, they actually love my truck. It is the locals that are giving me a hard time!
