I am setting up my Myco behind my new tow rig and was trying to figure out the best method for making sure the trailer is level behind the tow rig.
If I place a level on the fenders just above the axles is that the optimal spot to do it from? If I place the level on the side rails nearer the coupler I get a slightly different reading. Almost like the rails have a subtle rise before they get to the nose of the boat trailer.
I assume if I get the things level above the tires/axles ( I have two) when hooked up that is optimal? I have an adjustable mount/ball hitch.

Put a 6 foot straight edge on the frame, I would think the frame is a much better indicator, the fenders are just covers for the tires.
