I was curious if anyone experienced any problems with their modified rear suspension by the CHP, California specifically. Is there any legal/safety issues with changing the suspension from the two leaf springs to a trianglated-four link with coilovers? I am interested in driving to the drag strip and want to resolve any issues before getting pulled over: possibly a notarized/verfied inspection, etc...
Was initially intrigued and troubled when I read this past topic about his modification to his pitman arm and the comment by dezrik about four link suspensions.

lol, thats one way to build a drop pitman arm! As far as i know the only thing thats iffy when it comes to home built stuff is linked style suspensions, really only because any highway patrol can deem it unsafe for the highway and impound your truck. (Ive worked at a offroad shop in california)
