Finally, someone on this forum suggested just lifting the camper a little to get the load off the hitch. Then wait a few minutes and the truck will settle down as it re-levels itself with the weight off. This has been the best method for us. We tried putting it in "Jack Mode" but we did not have consistent results with that. We do not use the "Alternate Height" button either.
We have had no problems hooking up.

Also to hook up when all jacks are down, we raise the rear jacks after the slides are in. And move the truck under the pin and lower. The truck goes to working leveling not putting any strain on rear hydraulics.
