Could someone with a stock truck do me a HUGE favor???

Could someone who owns a stock truck take a measurement for me - from the ground to the center of the headlight? I'm pretty sure my new lift will be outside TX lift laws (54" max), but the shop says it will be fine. I'd like to be proactive such that I might get it back before August. Thanks!

42 1/2" but with 37" tires.

My completely stock 05 suv with new bfg all terrains measures 42".

Thanks so much! That would bring mine up to 57", definitely not legal.

Your going to have a whole lot of other problems to worry about if you run across some authority thats going to ticket you for headlight height.

If their that pissed off at you, that wont be the only ticket you get....Any cop can come up w/ some violation ticket on any vehicle if they want.

If you do ever get a ticket, I bet the ticket is under $100 or fix it and dismiss. No sence is spending money that doesn't need to be spent. Run it...if someone gives you ****, then spend the money.

Yep, if they want you for something or the city needs revenue, they're going to stop you for something in a Hummer. I haven't had a front plate on any of my Hummers for eight years and no problem until last week when I got pulled over for no front plate. I told him it must have fallen off and I hadn't noticed and he gave me a warning. He gave my front end a good looking over and asked me if the suspension was stock. I said yes and he said he had never noticed how much ground clearance H2s had. Maybe he was having a slow day and wanted to talk Hummers. I don't run front plates on my Corvette either, but I carry the plate behind the passenger seat, because even more so than the Hummer, I think they spoil the looks.
