I won't unload mine one anything not extremely level. Concrete or other pavement is best. I've done it in the dirt a few times but it was very level. Even then, trying to back the truck under is tight enough without having to worry about unlevel ground raising your bed at the wrong moment.
G'day,
Never unload on soft, uneven or sloping ground.
I nearly had catastrophic failure once, sloping ground with Dually swing out brackets and only 1/2 inch to spare between fenders and Jacks. One front leg started to sway as I had lowered front Cabover to low. Always keep front cabover 1-2 inches higher than the rear Jacks, when raising and lowering.
You need plenty of distance to reverse in under camper straight, at least 1.5 times the length of your Truck.
Can be done in shorter, if you have lots of experience.
Good Luck.
