There's some really great info in this thread and lots of time spent into putting it into words. This is what makes MOC so great.
I've used the bubble method for hitching height since my Dad gave me a bubble contraption in 1995. It works great.
Another little tip for you. Before unhitching, note whether the trailer is nose high or nose low. If it is nose high, obviously the nose needs to drop from where it is. If you just pull the pins and drop the landing gear, then raise the nose so you can unhitch, you will not be able to lower the nose beyond where you started. And thus you cannot get level, front to back. So you have to run the landing gear down aways before pulling the pins. Some of us (me) learned this the hard way.
