I'm already slightly down a degree or so............so I either go down more or up 1 hole as has been suggested.
The consequence of breaking parallel , at least from going DOWN some is already noted. The result of going UP is not.
I can tell you from experience with my car that if the bottom of the ladder bar is running on an upward angle in comparison to the frame of the car it will not hook the tires. A slight downward angle has always been better on my car. 3150 Lbs. and it will 60 ft in the 1.28 - 1.29 range when the air is good. This is with a PG.
