[QUOTE="pdqdl, post: 8207959, member: 22041"] I thought as much. Your average angle finder is wishful thinking. It'll sure tell you when you have lost your mind on a slope, but isn't truly accurate, especially when mounted inside the cab on a machine. You see, that only tells you where the machine is leaning, not what the slope is doing. I use a survey transit. A 10ft straight 2x4 with an accurate level and a tape measure will work pretty good, too, and you needn't drive down a hill with your machine to discover that you are in trouble, either. [/QUOTE]
