Our camper often find itself standing on 3 legs during jack operations. One of the rear jacks will exhibit daylight under the foot. It's a sturdy made in Canada camper, eh?
I never leave the truck lined up so as to place lateral force on the jacks as the load transfers from truck bed to jacks or vice versa. I do as many forth and backs as necessary to line up sqware under the camper.

These line up blocks would work great to keep the camper situated rotationally speaking in the truck bed and to make that last little alignment.
Nice simple set up.
