I measured the distance between the outside of driver side tires and the jack feet and got a measurement. I just put a straightedge, 2x4, rope, anything and make a parallel line going out. Now I just back in with my drivers side mirror looking down at the straight line and back in along that line. Works every time.
^^Sounds good, but I'm easily confused. How do you make the line parallel with the camper?
The first time the camper was loaded, I measured the distance between the outside of the tires and the jack pad on the ground. This is now a fixed measurement. So now when I want to reload the camper back on the truck I know that my line is 8.5" from jack pad to the tires and that becomes my parallel line out beyond the front. So at home I lay a couple 2x4's down and just backup along that line.
