Parking up on the curb

I live on a hill that gets a lot of cut-through traffic. About once a year one of my neighbors gets side-swiped or their mirror knocked off. Because of this, I usually pull up onto the curb when I park. So when I park, the right wheels are raised about 8" - 10" higher then the left wheels.

Now I wonder if I'm doing any unintended damage to my Tacoma by parking this way. I'll be curious to see what people have to say about this.

 

Mall crawling hurting a taco? I guess if you went up the curb at a bad angle you may risk popping a tire..but apart from that..nada!

 

You're not going to do any damage to your truck other than what it's doing to your tires scrubbing up the curb every time you park. Other than that, you run the risk or getting a ticket (at least around here you'd get one). Personally, I'd get a set of sliders with kickouts and get in the habit of folding in your mirror when you park.

 

Don't see how there would be any damage, you are compressing the springs more on one side but other than that probably nothing.

 

No damage whatsoever. I did this at Lowes all the time when I worked there. I still do it sometimes.
