I just checked with Trailer Valet and I have a solution for you but the Trailer Valet 5X item # STC-V211 tops out at 7 degree slopes. For use on your 10 degree driveway you will need the Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly with Chain Drive item # TVXL2. The XL has the capacity to move your Jayco 174BH 3500 lbs trailer on that steep of a slope no matter what direction you are going. I have linked a review video below so you can see the functions of this dolly.
