Notices
JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Hey Josh, my buddy is a state patrol, and he doesn't know of any laws regulating fenders. He drives a JK and none of his patrol buddies has ever pulled anyone over.

I haven't gone back through to look at your steering wheel, but if you removed airbags it is a problem.
This code is written loosely. What does it mean by saying the physical structure cannot be modified, changed or altered? This law is left open to interpretation. I have a 4"+ lift on mine plus 35" tires, I'm over 6", yet it still passes inspections and has no problems with law enforcement.

If you were driving like a fool, then I can see the law enforcement officer being a dick.

Bottom line, I really wouldn't worry about this build in NC.

SX's rock. I still wonder why it took interco so long to make a 42" size (38.5 was the biggest for years).
