Alberta out of province inspections

Cumminsnorth · 04-27-2008, 08:34 AM

Just wondering if anyone ever had one done and if so did they stick you on anything. What are the main things I should look for? other then lights, horn, tires, and steering parts.

Thanks

basically anything that could be deemed a saftey issue----- wipers washers horn brakes steering components windshield seat belts oil leaks if severe enough all lights tires

If You're Ever Down Here In Edmonton, I Can Let You Read The Book From Dept Of Hiways, And It Is Quite Indepth.. Most Shops Do Overcharge And Do Too Much To The Vehicles. I Think The Average Out Of Province Check Is About $130.00.... Our Shop Only Charges $80.00. Needless To Say, We Do A Lot Of Those Inspections...... Pm Me If You Have Any Questions Or Concerns About The Out Of Province Checks..........

Thanks for the replies I fixed some lights and checked everything over still need to replace signal light switch($175 from ford) and a tie rod end. Going to try to get the inspection done next week when the switch comes in.
Here's what I am working on its going to replace the long box that was wrote off(SEE MY AVATAR)

That Is One Good Lookin' Truck... I Doo Like The Looks Of Most Of The Ford Trucks... Just Not Fussy About The Newer Drivetrains Ford Has.... Is That A 400 In That Truck You Have??
ALSO, IS THE SPEEDO CALIBRATED TO THE TIRES YOU HAVE ON THERE?? IN OTHERWORDS, IS THE SPEEDOMETER ACCURATE?

Thats a good question the only place its been is drove on to a trailer and off so I don't know yet. I do have a little gear box that goes in line with the cable should be able to get different gears. My insurance company won't put liability on it until I get a inspection so I won't know until I can drive it. It has a 460 in it.

A 460.... That truck is going to haul... My dad used to have a 1978 Ford with a 460. It was a fun truck to drive!

I hope so it. The engine is out of a 85 and has ported and polished heads, flat top pistons, intake, 770 carb, cam, and headers. Hoping it well be at least 400hp but time well tell. The only bad thing about this one is the diff 3 to 1 ratio and open but I have a 3.50 to 1 limited slip in the other truck but that can wait until after the inspection is done. Going to get it inspect next week after I get the signal lights fixed up.

Good luck in getting the second mortgage each time you pull up to the gas pump!

700wfo I here what you are saying. I don't plan on using it as my daily drive though. It's just another toy like my sled and quad.

I pass the inspection with no issues.
