Proper Inclined Driveway Staging

[GCCLee]

Especially id your gonna run for long periods.


Cleaned this same house exactly 30days ago as they went to Texas to buy amother place, i was called in again for a little Market Ready touch up.


Run some extra hose and keep your Rigs as level as possible. Keeps all your pickups working properly and your engines lubed.

Dont Be Lazy!

sometimes you just don't have a choice........you got to pucker up and just get it done.....

And my friends call me a Polock... The drive must be steeper then it looks.. I would have pulled up straight and went a little into their garage to get the same angle you are running at..

I would have parked in the driveway as normal, then done it about 4000 more times so that five abd a half years later I'd be wondering wtf you guys were talking about...

 

[Jim Martin]

mine would not go in the drive way....I could back the Vortex up in there...it would still be at a slant...but not as much as the road.....the Chevy is 2 foot longer and that 2 foot will not let the bumper clear...and between the slant in the road and the one in the drive way........that's all I got..........

Just how many times to do we have to go over this?



You are for even thinking about it!




What if..........

The van gets noticed more near the street.

Maybe if he had a cone.. Stanley Steamer was driving back and forth laughing today!

im sure that many of yous hillbillys think that P stands for PARK......
let me set all ya straight....it stands for .......pall!

as in a parking pall.......inside yor transmission theres little lever....this little lever called a pall, keeps the trans from slipping out of park and into gear...on a steep incline all the weight of yor rig rest squarely on this little piece of stamped steel.....
I never did trust it....always park on a level!
i did not want to drive though a neighbors house with a roaring screaming blower goin' off......

Most vehicles come with a parking brake
Engage it before going into park

Kohler allows 8% off horizon

Accidentally crammed it into the Pall the other day backing into my drive, I felt like a ping pong ball in there!

If you look at the trash can. I am standing in the garage and my feet are above it. Last time I did 5 rooms and 2 sets of steps here.......





I got nasty azz water in my blower. In the pic I can zoom in and barely see it. about a 8" tan spot on the concrete.
It is about two foot down on the left side of the pic from where there grass and concrete start, looks like a smudge on the image.





Dang I need some Lettering Bad!!!!!

We have these in all of our trucks. Those driveways would be considered flat here.

It's a pawl, Bawb (get it? ) . A pall is a cloth used to cover a casket (pall bearers....)

Don't get the black ones. "Someone" will just drive over them and leave them behind.

You never heard of an emergency (parking) brake?

And a good way to know if you are exceeding the incline allowed for proper lubrication of components is to mark an angeled line close to the bottom of the jug on the side (parallel to the street/driveway) of your chem jug as a reference line of so many degrees.

Of course your chem jug is going to need to be over half full for this to work.
