As someone has brought up the thread of levellers, can anyone help with my little problem:Blush:
Both front seats swivel to make up the lounge/dining area. Being a Ford Transit, the handbrake is in the way of the driver's seat swivelling and so has to be released (having left it in gear, of course). There is always a slight bit of movement as the brake releases and the gear takes effect - having got everything level, it ain't level anymore as we slip slightly down the block!
Anyone else had this problem and found a solution?

easy phil....
when you drive up the ramps go a little higher than needed, either forward or backward, hold it on the clutch, put on the handbrake, turn off the ignition while still holding on the clutch.
doing this iliminates the 'slack' in the gears so no slack, no roll back.
then put a block under the wheels.
then you can let the handbrake off.
