Hi Bob-
Prior to altering the curb you might want to check with your public works
dept to see if that's allowed. Problem with filling in the gutter is blocking
the drainage flow. While living in Corpus Christi I had trouble getting my
TR6 over the curb at my driveway so I placed a 2" ID pipe at the curb and
cemented a ramp over it.
Good luck
