Also it is up to the cops discretion on the ticket.  As for adjustable suppention the lincoln mark series all have adjustable ride hieght, they adjust to the speed of the vehicle.  All the range rover vehicles have this as well, being they are 4 wheel drive they have switch to go up for offroad and lowering highway speed also.  When this truck reaches a certain speed on the highway it does lower for better center of gravity for speed.  I wish you luck on the ticket every city is different, no matter what the law states.

good luck man. fighting the law is one of the hardest things 2 do. i guess im lucky i live next 2 2 hick ass towns with c combined population of some where around maybe 1300 people lol and the cops could care less what i do with my truck cuz they know its me...since im the only one around with 1 and fixing 2 be 2 bagged trucks lol. but i guess it does help are cops in the town i live closest 2 have known me my hole life and grew up with my dad and there kids grew up with my brother and me always hanging around haha. we had a huge problem with cops in the other town that he was righting tickets for head lights out of adjustment and just all kinds of stupid things. he didnt last very long in a town of lil over 500 people lol.

--------------------------------------------- Originally posted by ten42 well im probably the only cop that i know of thats a member on this site and with that being said i know im pretty much the enemy here.  just wanted to say that not all cops are assholes... i have never and will never give  bullshit ticket like that unless the truck is falling apart...but good luck with getting out of that cite --------------------------------------------- I'm actually a police officer too, in California.  I was a mini trucker for several years.  I will sometimes stop a mini trucker and give him shit about his NON-BODY dropped mini.....I will mess with them about how its illegal and how i'm going to tow....then I laugh and say just kidden (its illegal still) but I wont tow it.  Unless of course, he's being an ass.  I then tell them to have a good night and that DIAMONDS R FOREVER <>

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by MiNiTrUcKr86i was on my lunch goin home when a cop tracks me down a mile from where i saw him parked and pulled me over for cvc26101 for modified tailights and cvc 24002 unsafe vehicle.. the unsafe vehicle was for having air bag suspension and havin my bed cut out... ive been lookn for where it says bout air bags suspension and cant find anything, if anybody has had same problem and went to court to fight won or any place where it actually shows about unsafe vehicle for modified suspension...---------------------------------------------  dont sweat it, i had this problem and i brought up the fact that it is all d.o.t approved and that cars are built with air ride like lincolns and cadillacs as long as you was not using them you can bring up that fact. it worked for me good luck

 im in ventura county california, and ive been driving my truck with no bed for about the last week and ive had cops follow me and then when they pass me they give me a thumbs up. haha i guess they like my setup. the motorcycle cops around here will try and get you for any lil thing though. it pretty much depends on the cop, and your attitude. when i get pulled over for anything i never argue with the officer even if i know he is pulling me over for b.s., i will just take my ticket to the station and talk to someone higher up in rank. but i go in and "ask" about my ticket, i dont go in saying that some douche cop gave me a ticket for no reason. i ask if they could explain to me why i was ticketed in a lil more detai and what i would have to do to fix the probleml, and they have written it off a few times for me. so maybe you can try that

I got pulled over last night in Myrtle Beach, SC while cruising ocean blvd.  I had my 4 and 6 year old daughters in the scion with me.  I hit the level button while rolling at about 2 - 3 miles per hour.  All it did was let 10 lbs out of my right rear bag so the xb sat even.  In myrtle beach it is all tourists and ocean blvd is bumper to bumper almost all night in the summer.  they have officers riding segways and bicycles between cars.  He stopped me, said it is against the law to lower, raise, or adjust your suspension while on a public roadway period. he demanded my drivers licence, insurance card, and registration.  He said that he could write me a ticket for several things,  wreckless driving or wreckless endangerment!  I told him i was hardly moving.  he goes be hardly moving again and see what happens,  This is your one warning.  WHAT A DICK!
