My last 3 TT's were aluminum sided so I lined the level up with the lower edge of one of the siding panels.

Borrow a real level from a neighbor. Level the camper. Put on the 'stick on' levels. Return level to neighbor (or he'll never lend you his stuff again).

I was thinking I could do that off the frame right? And where is the best place to put them?

Level the fridge by using the neighbors level because thats the most important part to be leveled. After that you can install the stick on levels and the rest of the RV will be close enough.

Use your carpenter's level until the one time you get it perfectly level then stick on the bubble levels.

I leveled at a couple areas of the floor.

I still lay in bed and night and can tell if I'm off level a bit and can fix it the next morning.

It will probably depend on what you want level? If you worry about your sleeping, then maybe you should lift the mattress, and put a level on the bed platform....adjust the RV so that it's level, and then put up your stick-on levels.

You can do the same thing with the galley table, the fridge, the floor, or the frame.....but more than likely, you'll get a different version of level at each place

It really depends on how picky you are

When this happens to me I just pour another drink. I've found it's easier than going outside at night jacking up the trailer

You forgot the stove - lots of folks like their eggs to not run to the side of the pan.

Level the trailer by placing a torpedo level under the window sills on the exterior. Front or back and one side, takes five minutes. I've never relied on the stick-on type.
