Vehicle Codes

[BruceBruce]

What are the vehicle codes/standards in the US? The reason is that I want to design and build a frame that meets the automotive standards. Things that I would need to know are ride height,and how high the front and rear lights need to be from the ground.

"Art without engineering is dreaming; Engineering without art is calculating."

Have you read faq731-376 to make the best use of Eng-Tips Forums?
