Default Anyone in Southern NH and Low?

Wow, I have an 04 R/T, lowered on Tokico HP struts/springs. I just failed inspection due to the bumper bar being 3 inches too low! I know when I dropped it I only lost about 1 3/4" ride height, so WTF? Anyone low in southern NH that passed and where? Or any suggestions on what to do? I don't want to do the work all over but if I get annother set of stock R/T springs on the HP struts that should do it right?

My suggestion is go to another place where the people aren't dicks. B/c I think there just playing games with you. And that's why it also helps to know someone that does inspections b/c then anything you want becomes legal.

No, these guys aren't dicks, that's the problem, there is actually a law in NH, I've read it. Working on the "knowing a guy thing" but for now I'm looking into the stage 3 mopar coil over kit anyways.

wow.... im sorry but that law sucks!! I don't see a purpose for it, but the way to get around it is to replace the springs when getting it inspected[:-]

thats acually an uninforced law in most states. however their only inforced on inspection in a few. tecknechly the only way you can lower or raise your car is if the maker has that as an option. when they come into my shop we let it go unless its less than 3 inches of clearence.

I used to live in the south coast of MA. Check out my forum www.fycracing.com About 1500 members from all of New England. Look for dajokers 1st gen NYG full SRT-4 swappped neon on there. he's from NH.

(mods www.fycracing.com is not in competition wit this site, so don't delete the link. It's a forum for all makes and models and is not a dodge specific site)

Does anyone know if the Ground Control COil-overs will fit the Tokico's? or any good suggestions for a coil-over kit
