Anything wrong with this??

Safe is questionable, if a jack fails it could be expensive. Also need to keep rears wheels on ground all the time when front ones are up in the air. 2 extra minutes with a couple of blocks under the wheels could save a life time of regrets. another concern is the pistons being bent or torque, due to side rocking.

Interesting. It is a gasser, so probably doing maintenance. Looks like he is thinking outside the box to get underneath and drain the oil and change the filter. That's my guess.

First, as for no campground would never build a parking space with that kind of slope??? Yes they would. There is a campground in Palm Springs that is exactly as unlevel as the driveway in the picture. EVERY SPACE is concrete and sloped to the point that the wheels have to be off the ground.
Second, I park in my sons driveway for a couple weeks at a time and its sloped. Not as much as the one in the picture but enough that I have to have my front wheels 6"off the ground. I have heavy timber blocks left at my sons house to rest my front wheels on once leveled. Not be best setup but when your cheap........

I agree Sully. What if a child crawls under that thing and it decides to let go?

Safety? What could happen to harm anyone?

Not a campground, clearly a driveway and I've seen worse driveways.

Front wheels off ground, ONE OK, two NO NO, puddle of liquid under rig (Might be dash air condensate, which is OK, might be something else)

Personally with our Atwood Levelegs..I would never do this since we've had 3 of 4 fail in the past 9 years. That much prolonged weight on the 2 - 1/2" internal screw drives, we would be probably be looking at two more down the road. Plus you might not get the failed jacks down since they would "lock-up" and have to be removed extended.

I've seen units in driveways, like the one in this picture, with the front wheels off the ground.
And, I've had the front wheels of our Southwind off the ground.

I don't think it hurts anything or is unsafe. But, it probably looks unsafe because we don't usually see a Class A with the front end off the ground.

">is this safe

Are you worried about it tipping over in a wind storm? Probably rocks less than one that is not jacked up off the ground.

If one rear tire is off the ground, then the parking brake will not stop the other tire from spinning. Even leaving the RV in park, with one tire off the ground will not keep the vehicle still.

The RV is stable. The only problem that I can foresee is if the hydraulic line from a single front jack to the controller springs a big leak, then it can tilt to one side. Thus a reason to put 6X6 block of wood about 12" long under each tire, so it does not tilt to much to one side if one hydraulic line should break, or one of they front seals fails and leaks down over time.

I would add some support under the front wheels after raising it to level, but other than that, my Bounder (looks exactly like that one) sits like that for about eight months a year.
