You braced it to something that needs to be braced.

You going to have to put a bar horizontal in the middle of it so you can have a seat for when working on the engine

I never understood how people are allowed to drive around with fishing rods on the front of their vehicle, but a large stinger is considered a violation. I don't see the difference ... they both obstruct the driver's view.

I agree with 00Pajeepcherokee. Swearing is swearing is swearing. It's not about being thin skinned or imposing your beliefs on anyone. The site forbids swearing and they have language filters to wipe the most common words. You used words that are by themselves non-offensive, but together constitute a huge swear. And before anyone else jumps on the bandwagon ... I haven't seen the inside of a church in over 10 years - by choice - and that's when my brother got married. So I'm no bible thumper. But what's funny to some might be offensive to others. You have offended some people - it happens. Stop with the e-grandstanding, apologize & move on.

I agree, *knock on wood* so far I have passed a hand full of cops and they haven't even looked at me. Though my dad says he doubt it will pass inspection, im going to call Monday and get it checked out before I go into further bracing.

When I was younger we had an old Ford that had a 2x6 for a floor board that was all. The thing was just wide enough to put your feet on and it past inspection. Ive lived here all.my life and have had a 93 2 door inspected when door fell off and have the floor gone without any problem. Our 98 has a cracked windshield and we have to fix that but VA isn't that ****.
