Unlevelled driveway and impact on axle

[souki83]

Hi all -

We go out camping in our Micro Minnie 2108TB ~4 days a month with the exception of September when we're out 3 weeks.Other than that, it's parked in my driveway from Apr to Oct. That driveway of mine is far from levelled, with the front of the trailer being ~10 inches lower then the back - meaning, I need to raise the tongue by ~10 inches w/ blocks and jack. In the winter, I have a spot which is levelled.

Question - given it's in this position for 3 weeks straight for about 6 months, does this put a lot of stress on my dual axles? Should I be worried about it? Should I start looking into spending $ and level my driveway. Or, I'm worrying too much.

Thanks.

Each axle has a rating of 3,000lbs. Not likely you’re shifting enough weight from one to the other when off-level. Besides that, when you’re parked, it’s a static load on the axles, which has much less affect on axles than when you’re in motion. I park my Micro Minnie on a 8% slope for the last 3 years. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Thanks Marine359 - appreciate the feedback. Need to worry less and get out more. Don't we all?
