Mine is also like that. Last August, I got a circular bubble level to install just behind the tongue on the A frame to save some time when setting up. I leveled the TT, and when I install the level on the A frame, it was off. Sure glad that the Amazon return are quick and easy.

It's called sloppy work from Lippert. If it's solidly welded then it's really just a minor eye sore as you're probably the only one who will notice it.
I would crawl under the TT and drop the corroplast and check to see if Lippert welded all the connections.

Thank you all for the responses. After reading everything so far I walked the trailer with the level, including checking the floor of the fridge (never would have thought about that!). We were going by the pass through floor, but that ended up not matching anything inside the trailer (which still doesn’t match the tongue). I ultimately found a spot on the pass through door hinge that matches the majority of the trailer interior (fridge, kitchen counter, floor - but not the bathroom counter!) and will use that going forward. Had to adjust the level a good inch this morning after discovering how off the trailer was. Needed Marcy to come walk the trailer for us! 🤣

One other thing I do after we are all set up is to check with vanity door and the bathroom door. Do they stay where I open them too or do they travel one way or the other.

I use these

with this

Once you get it level on the 1st setup it's always the same without guessing. I can sit in the truck, back up over the curved levelers until the app say level. Set the recall on the hitch section and when rehitching I can just lower the tongue to the exact height it was when uncoupling.
If I see .50 on the app for side to side then I use a one Lynx pad under one tire.

you should only really need to check your fridge once and if it is level with the floor then no need to check it thereafter. I simply level side to side using my rear bumper and a level (confirmed to be within acceptable tolerance of main floor) and then place the level on the floor with the door open while the DW watches it and tells me when we are good I stop adjusting the tongue jack and that is it....
If the fridge is not level to the main floor, I would highly consider shimming it so that it is that way you only have to worry about leveling the trailer and not the fridge.Jeff and Debbie

The tongue should be welded to the frame of the trailer these two things should be perpendicular to each other.
On my 315 if you climb under the trailer you are able to see the welds between the tongue and trailer frame, I would verify that there are no broken welds where the two are joined and that they are perpendicular and not bent also. You never said how far out the difference is between the two (1/2” in 2’)?The only thing that works on a RV is the owner...

One other thing, I don’t know how common this could be I’ve never heard of it happening but the weight distribution hitches put lots of force on the tongue, overloading it could bend the structure if the perfect storm was setup I would imagine.
Anyone ever heard of that happening from too much pre-load?The only thing that works on a RV is the owner...
