The amount it is out when one wheel is on a ramp is compensated by being tilted rearwards and also tilted sideways so for 90% of cases it is satisfactory. Hoist is best.

Ok I'm picking up what your saying

Im just going to add that the fluid level precision always seemed silly considering the truck can operate at almost 45 degrees in any direction.

I still haven't been able to do anything with the vehicle since the battery has gone dead. The car is now on bump stops and we had a hurricane come through. I'm going camping this weekend hopefully I'll pick up a new battery on the way home from camping and report back.
