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?

Can't believe so many of you are apparently operating without levels permanently mounted for fore & aft plus side to side where you can't see them from your front leg switches.
You are running back & forth, inside then outside with a carpenters level. Really???
Uh, yeah, really!!! Just a couple of things you are turning a blind eye to.
1 Those little levels that you speak of are about as accurate as just standing back and eyeballing it. If you are going to take the time to level up, might as well do it right, don't ya think?
2 Who is running back and forth? Do you camp solo? I don't. My wife is more than capable of watching the level while I make the adjustments.
3 Who wants those ugly @ss, worthless, stick on/screw on levels mounted on their RV???
It doesn't take a minute longer to level up using a 4' level -vs- a little stick on, and it's actually level when I'm done. Not sure I can see any negative doing it this way.
