Is it illegal to drive a truck in NYC with a lift kit? If not is there a certain height that's within a legal limit?

New York

All '90-and-later commercial vehicles and trucks can't go crazy and get that bumper above 24 inches from the ground. Also, keep in mind that headlights must not be more than 54 inches above the cement, and taillights can't be higher than 72 inches. Turn signal lights can't exceed 83 inches. Since lifted trucks aren't really in abundance in New York, the state police informed us that they mostly look for drivers that are in violation of traffic laws rather than height of the vehicle. If you want a more in-depth look, go to the website. You will find more information regarding terrorism than vehicle height, which is understandable. For more information, check out www.newyork.gov.
