This cracked me up! My husband swears I am more accurate than a level. I guess I have a good eye for it

My wife could care less and wouldn't notice a 45° angle. Drives be crazy if water doesn't run straight to the shower drain.

I know what you mean.

Thanks for all the ideas. I'll have to experiment. The thought about using the counter may not work well with me since all my counter space is on a slide. I know the slides are supposed to be close to level but I'm not sure how close is close.

The floor near the center (lengthwise) seems like it would work since it's mounted to the frame.

For grins I'll contact FR to see what they use.

Levels

I use a torpedo level to get it close and two stick on levels to finish the job. Stick ons work well as you are able to tweak them when the wife is not looking.

Feedback I got from FR tech help is to use put the level on the floor....

I'll do this and once level I'm going to check it against the couter and frame from below. Now I'm curious what will match up.

I have an aluminum sided TT. I use the Hoppe curved bubble levels. I generally put the levels on using the siding as a guide and a 4' carpenter's level. This works well for side to side. For front to back, I use the 4' level a couple feet inside the door. I plan on putting at least one of the curved bubble levels on the side of the TT at the front for an easy check point.
