Is there an easy way to align the front of the camper?

It has always been interesting to me how this task of backing under the camper is very stressful for some folks, and that this simple method escapes them. Just back up so you have the same distance between the truck and the jacks showing in the mirrors. Simple. If you do this, you don't need any kind of centering device or laser beams, or a helper. I don't believe I've had to readjust more than 2 or 3 times in my life. It's just a load you're placing in the bed of your truck, nothing more, nothing less.

Here it is how it works for me.
I have guides on truck bed (also 2" shim, that you might not need)

Now for reference how to back the truck, here is moment when I had rear wheels going between camper front jacks. In the mirrors you see the visual gaps between front jacks and rear wings is different - meaning truck is not lined up with camper.

Here it is after lining up, where both gaps in the mirrors look the same.

That will get your camper within 1" of perfection. The rest will be done with guides and in drastic situation I can move the camper almost 1" by lowering one side.
Yes you can flex the camper on jack at least 1" if not 2"
Stick house will flex too if you push it with bulldozer.
