Drill and Allen Wrench
Like Bill and others, I use my cordless drill and allen wrench (see attached photo) to quickly lower and raise the stabilizer jacks. I don't have a problem using the manual crank, but the drill is much faster. And again, like Bill, I have the drill in the back of my truck with the rest of my tools and getting it out is quicker than getting the manual crank out of the bumper storage area. I imagine over time, it will save wear and tear on the arms as I get older (I am 50). Once the jacks contact the ground, the drill will lift the trailer if the batteries have a good charge, but I have used the manual crank to finish the leveling. I learned about the drill and allen wrench from Custom RV in Anaheim when I went to see the TM there before buying one. I thought it was a great idea.
