Inclined DrivewayL Safety?

[87ChevyR10]

I'm planning on doing some front-end work on my truck this coming weekend. My folks driveway is not level. It inclines from the street to their garage. I would use their garage if the truck fit inside it. Best I can do is get the front end in, which means half the truck is level and the back half is on the inclined driveway.

I know ideally, level ground is best. What would be the best way to secure my truck while the front is on jack stands? Chocks for the rear wheels? Anything else?

Thanks!

Chock up both rear wheels, and if you feel comfortable using your park brake you can use that as well as the chocks, as long as it isn't too bad of angle youll be ok. Its a lot better when you have to jack the front up instead of the back because you can have it in park also or in gear if its a manual.

Here's the best pic I have atm of the truck parked on the driveway.

I wouldn't be too worried about that incline if I was you, Chock both rear wheels, park brake if you aren't worried about it freezing up then have it in park or in gear and you should be good to go.

My driveway slopes much more than this and i just changed the transmission in my truck out there. Truck was backwards, blocked the wheels and set parking brake. No issues.
