1992 Kenworth T800 Passing DOT inspection question?

@Kshaw0960 might know or @Gliding ProStar

 

You need an inspection when renewing IRP plates. That’s it. I register my trailers without an inspection no problems.

 

You may be confusing an inspection with a VIN inspection. Any commercial vehicle that I have purchased has required a VIN inspection to get registered, but I'm not in Texas.

 

I’ve purchased 8 trucks and never registered the vin. I don’t even know what you’re talking about.

 

Yes, you will need an inspection if you are applying for IRP Plates. In Texas, the inspectors do not give inspection stickers anymore for a DOT inspection. They will give you a form to keep in the truck.

 

Try it in Idaho. They will need to do a vin inspection before registering. Usually just call the Sheriff and they send someone out to do it.

 

Same thing for indiana, but here its ANY vehicle that wasnt already plated in indiana.
