Parking (my trivial curiosity)

[Tave]

Does parking on uneven ground cause undue wear and tear on a suspension? Say you park on the side of the road w/ one or two wheels on a curb. Is this bad for your shocks/springs/tires/other?

Pretty sure no.

I would say no also-

The Germans are finicky about a LOT of different things- and I doubt they'd all be parking half-on sidewalks if it did any damage whatsoever to their Autos...

I don't see why.  Most suspension problems come from constant cycling or impacts, not from sitting at rest a certain way.

I think we had a thread on this awhile back, and the answer was no. I'll look for it.

Soup posted some math that showed a minimal change in the center of gravity caused by parking on a curb.

If you parked a solid axle vehicle at full articulation, on the other hand...

I think the user's manual s discourage people to do so.
