I use a ryobi 18volt drill with a 1/4 inch extension with a 3/4 inch socket to lower my stablizers. am going to weld onto the front a 3/4 bolt head to make that easy too. To level simply back up on boards and add levels high enough to see from INSIDE tow veh have some one do front to back for you. I am considering a backup camera option too one for the ball of the tow veh and after your connected on the back of the trailer. No more screaming left or right or my left your right or honey i still love you!!!!!!!!! Also if you are having a hard time with attaching your chains on your weight distributing hitch. the problem might be the rivets they used are soft and worn simply drill and replace with a bolt.
