I was there ago couple of months ago...IIRC there was a dip/speedbmp at the entrance...the inclines are not to bad...but I am only lowered an inch in the front and half in the rear with no kit.

but isn't the aquarium really close to the freeway entrance? maybe i should check google maps. yeah, i don't want to get caught in crazy traffic even before i get back on the freeway.

i was acutally born in long beach, grew up in cerritos and irvine and now live in LA so, i've been everywhere in b/n haha

Yeah the Aquarium is right off the 710 so no traffic getting back to the freeway. The parking structures are lowered car friendly IIRC.
