So if your running 4.3 diffs and a speedo adjustment gear you should be right..
That was about 2 years ago though..
Things may have changed..
A $50 speedo gear is all thats needed to correct that then. .
Tyre roll on a 35 is the major concern when doing the swerve test i was told by the engineers here. Plus its written in black and white in the rule book one said too. It is in one of the links in the op, i think. Man if theres a loop hole or a way, I'd be on it. Cost depending of course. Lol.
Really. As long as my car is engied for everything else, i wont worry about the 35s and just cop a minor defect notice which is easy to get cleared.

Not always the case.
When AB and I got picked up they were doing us a favor by not issuing the $400 fine and demerit points and its at their discretion if they hand out a minor of mayor defect.
When are you going to 4x4 obsission? Call in while your up my way. I'll have the coffee on........
12/97 GEE YOU
4.5lt Gas blower. Lots of mods to come.....all in good time.

From my understanding. If the fuzz only get you for one defect they cant issue a canary. As its three defects needed for this.
I could be wrong but thats what i am led to believe. Happy to be proven wrong
When you got done and copped the canary its because the tyres you had weren't load or speed rated and are pretty much bait. Lol
Ill have no ride to when i drop the car off. So unless your in walking distance....

Hey mate, I get your thinking, but one important thing is that none of it really matters. The police don't need to know exactly what's what.. They could say your accelerator pedal looks worn, the numbers on your gear stick aren't visible enough and your rear seatbelt doesn't retract fast enough - and you could take it for a rwc and pass all of these things with no issue - it won't stop them from giving you a yellow sticker if they want to. FWIW, I'm with you and I run the gauntlet myself. Thankfully only been done once for tyres and lift, was a minor and only an inspection required (had to change lift/tyres of course, but that's no biggy). My point being, if they want to get you, they will.
