I was always told to put the stabs down after the roof because if you put them down too hard you can twist the frame, and it did not take much to cause my popup door to stick if the stabilizers were not down even.
It sure can......learned that myself. Just touching the ground is all that is needed. Does it matter before or after raising the roof?....probably not.

I think the video that Rockwood produced says to level, stabilize, then raise the roof. But I seldom do this myself. I level then raise the roof, then stabilize. I am just in a hurry usually to get the pop up open so the DW can get in to do some stuff.

You can twist the frame either way if you really crank the stabs down, and have one or two really cranked to change the level is not good before or after the roof is up.
