73m819: Without getting to political I will say in my opinion for several reasons it is wrong that the law is retroactive, I can understand New equipment having to comply to Slowly ever increasing cleaner standards.

Moto4forlife: From what I understand, it is up to the owners, they are supposed to report their fleet to CARB and what you are doing for compliance. How they will do the enforcement and subsequent fines is unknown to me. Fleet consist of How many commercially used and/or registered trucks over...

If anyone would like to consider the small Fleet option and own 1- 3 trucks used or registered Commercially in CA you are not exempt to the regulation, read about your compliance options in this link: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/onrdiesel/documents/FAQsmall.pdf Keep in mind the CARB Diesel...

WILDBOY6X6, Yes you are correct about GVWR, Sorry for the confusion everyone I left the R off GVWR I will edit that in the post. For the CARB Diesel Regulation they go off the manufacture GVWR(Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) not GVW(Gross Vehicle Weight) for the regulation. So for example a...

Jesusgatos, Yes in CA Historical Registration and RV House Car Registrations are Exempt from the CARB Diesel Regulation that applies to 14,000lb GVWR and higher Diesel powered vehicles, unless you use the vehicle for commercial purposes then if you did the Law/regulation would apply the same as...

Hello Jesusgatos, I have seen your truck build before, you have a lot of cool ideas going into it, but haven’t looked at it in a while though. As to your question I have my m36a2 registered Historic vehicle. The law is basically used primarily for exhibition, events and test drives etc., no...

Kloakndagr, Well find out if he has the SF97, if he does not have one you will not be able to get one if he has had it since 2001, as the original purchaser can only buy the SF97 up to one year after the original vehicle purchase. If he does not have the SF97 read scottsdal’s post above and...

Londoggy, PM with contact info sent.

I have my m36a2 registered historic basically, allowed to be used for events, test drives, no mileage limit, so as long as you’re not using it for work, hauling gravel, taking it to home depot, or using it as a daily driver you should be fine for recreational use in my opinion, If you make it RV...

Moto4life You don’t state how you have your truck registered but if you have it registered Commercial yes your truck falls under the CARB Diesel Law, See the link in the first post of this thread to the CARB site click on the regulation tab then click on the final regulation and that’s the law...

Scottsdal you may need this data from the TM's to help for Titling, for the Unladen weight and GVW, it may even pass so you do not have to get it weighed but you most likely will need to get it weighed, In the table below your Unladen weight is in the Net weight column and GVW would be the...

Quickfarms is right you must get a Vin verification done to tilte any of these trucks or trailers in CA, I did not really cover this in the first post. You can have it done several ways, one way is to have it done by a DMV Service, most will come out to the vehicle to do the Vin verification. Or...

Scottsdal, all my trucks Vin are too short and not the same as a normal Vin, my DMV service said it took a manager at the DMV to do an override, the DMV really didn’t like the 87 since after a certain year the criteria changed.

Scottsdal, Also please post how it goes, and what you have to do different than what’s posted here, since you are doing it without a SF97.

scottsdal, first look at the data plate on the pass side of the dash with the vin if you’re lucky it has a place for the year to be stamped. Example My Kaiser Jeep trucks have a place for the last two digits of the year to be stamped 19 --. My late model AM General truck does not and the year is...

Well Lex, to sum it up Register with GL, preview and I mean really preview drive out and look it over check the fluids and condition of the fluids and condition on the whole truck don’t trust the pictures or description because they can and have been wrong (they get items mixed up somtimes due...
