A Frame Setup
After leveling your camper do you open it and then put the stabilizers down,or do you put the stabilizers down and then open it?

Unlike the old days in pop ups where lift system binding was an issue, I have found it doesn't matter and sometimes even helps the roof latches align. Just make sure you don't overlift with the stabilizers.

I always put the camper walls up before putting down the stabilizers Found that sometime the walls don't aligned if the stabilizer are lowered first

So between RenFaire Camper and me, you have a two opposing experiences. Although I often don't even put them down at all.
The manual says to put the stabilizers down first. So take that in to consideration.

Well for that matter if its just me over night I don't lower them either. Wife likes them down says the rocking makes her sea sick if I don't lower them.
