Put something like whip antennas on each side of your trailer at the back. That way you can see what is happening with your trailer better,also a longer tongue trailer backs much better, if you can weld an extension on, it really helps.

I have a small trucking company, and back 53' foot trailers all day,most every day.
The method that works best for me: hand at top of wheel, when more of your trailer appears in one of your mirrors, turn your wheel slightly in that direction, also giving a little bit of throttle seems to help me,instead of going really slow.

53' are a walk in the park...... backing a 25' with a dual axle truck is a bitch, its not as bad with a single axle. I use to spot trailers for on occasion..... never minded moving the 48s or 53s
