Where is "level" determined on a fifth wheel?
Or in my case, a gooseneck horse trailer? What is the place a manufacturer base the placement of the levels off of if I were to double check?

what time is it??? I have 2- 6'8" levels and a different brand but yep I used them to install doors but when the doors cost in the thousands I used a plumb Bob. The more a door cost the easier it is to do a fine job. Pride is everything.

Oh the good ol days using plumb bobs.
Everything now is laser. I will say the quality lasers are just as accurate as a plumb bob.
Pride kept me busy as a Carpenter/Super for 32 years with one Contractor.
So back to topic. Buy or borrow a lazer level and adjust the 4 corners of the bottom of the frame then stick one level under the overhang near the drivers side for side to side level then another next to the control box for front to back level. I did this once in my driveway and my RV sits perfectly level every time I set it up.
