Where do I put my level when leveling T.T?
Some people say level the refrigerator only, others say just place level on floor, others say place it on against the outside wall of the T.T. and others I have seen this one. Use the bumper of the T....

I level based on the entry door frame. If the entry door does not swing open or close, but stays at any spot you put it, your camper is about as level as it can get.
My previous camper had an arch to the floor. The middle was high, the ends were low. No matter how it was parked, it always felt like we were waling up and down hill. I finally realized if the entry door frame was level, everything else was too (except the arched floor).
So, I've been doing it that way ever since. I found out once the entry frame is level front to back, and side-to-side, the refrigerator, the counter tops, the stove, the refrigerator, everything is pretty much level too (including the water in the toilet bowl.
One trick you can use also, when backing or parking your camper, eyeball an object that is straight vertical (like a building), then eyeball a straight up and down line (corner or something) on your camper. When two appear to be parallel up and down, you've got a pretty close Left-Right level. However, old barns are not a good source though. I did that at my in-laws farm and when standing in the camper, it was clear out of whack. When I really looked at the barn, found out it was really leaning quite a bit.
So, the door frame still works the best.
