The problem with a slope is that when the camper lifts off the truck bed it lifts one edge off first.
The remaining weight that is still in contact with the truck bed is on one edge of the camper.
That will result in the camper frame sustaining it's weight on one edge of the frame.
Campers really are not built for repeated use in that manner.
Even worse is if the camper is lifted slightly off level which then places the camper weight more toward one corner of the camper frame!
It is important to keep the truck bed and camper bottom surface in as near to a parallel plane as is possible when lowering or lifting the camper.
I'm sure that there are many posters that will avow as to how they've done it on a slope without problem.
Its a simple caution and your's to evaluate.
yes, we do keep it parallel when lowering or lifting and try to keep it level. Dh is on one side cranking and I'm on the other.
