"so in this case lift actually makes leaning feel worse."
yep
I have this cool app for my phone and I have a mount that keeps it level in the Jeep. I'll let you all know when I fall over what it said

while down at the local bronco junkyard (I know the owner) we were playing on the ramp he has and the guys whose classic broncos tire I was driving onto had his In a "tippy" spot and he got out and tried to tip it over and he got it to have the body sit very very near dead vertical and it would not go over...........mine will go very far before I even get the tippy feeling so it is unique to every truck and the only way to really do it is use a forklift on the side and see when it will go over ........ of course that is with it strapped off so when it does tip it doesn't actually go over
I hate that feeling too! I've been in that situation myself, but this trip to the Rubicon Trail a few years ago happend so fast I didnt have time to do anything but hold on!
Wow, that looked terrifying! Good thinking to gas out once your buddies flipped you over, I'm sure that wasn't easy!
lol, nice

And thanks all for the great feedback!
Pretty far need to get that clinometer!
From the image itself, it looks to compute out to 26 degrees...
I rotated the original image for the "vertical" trees and post to be near true vertical. I then drew a green line aligned with the bumper. I then made a "horizonal" line by deleting content from the bottom of the pic. Rotating the "green line" to match the horizontal I need a 26 degree rotation for them to match.
