I think since you have one of the screws out now, that positioning the car would be easier. If your leveler still works, you could try that but then overshoot may be an issue as it coasts to a stop.

Unless something has really sagged, it should be fairly easy, keeping the wheels as they are, to raise one end of frame or the other with a jack a few inches and see which takes the load off. If lever is wanting to go to the frame, then would try raising the front first. There should be a point where no load on the loosened lever will be obvious. If that doesn't work and it still wants to go more toward frame, then would put a small block between frame and lever to prevent going any further, just tap the motor until block tight and then loosen.
