No Kentucky statute sets a bumper-height or suspension-lift limit. The general size limit applies: a truck, trailer, manufactured home or vehicle may not exceed 11 1/2 feet in height or 96 inches in width, including any part of the body or load, on highways other than those the secretary of transportation designates for larger dimensions under KRS 189.222. (KRS 189.221(1).)
