Just get the thing as level as possible before you start but with a slight 'rear up bias'. Then level side to side with the rear jack stands. Then crank up the tongue till it's level and steady. You can get a cup thinggy to put the wheel in so it won't roll.

I picked up a set of 4 nested jackstands for about $20. The set only weighs a few pounds. Like these:

Thanks PK, that info is great. Def leaning toward the stabilizer jacks. Gotta check our underside and see if they'll require any extra holes etc...
And Tom,with those separate, is it a PITA to store them? I thought something attached would be less hassle than storing and retrieving them etc.... The weight will be on board anyway, so attached or separate isn't that different I guess.
Thanks guys! Appreciate the tips from you more "seasoned" caravaners!
