Stabilizer jack question

   I turn mine down with the battery powered drill, with the torque setting at 10 or 12.  On dirt it does push into the ground a little bit, but I figure that is about the same as standing inside and moving around.

	On pavement or concrete I just snug the stabilizers, on other surfaces I snug plus a half turn then check them the next morning for settling.

	Hi there-I have a question regarding the stabilizer jacks on my Pod (2016 182g HRE). When engaging my stabilizer jacks I simply get them pressed firmly up against the boards I bring for this, being careful not to use them too much so they are not lifting the camper. My question however is the trailer still has a little bit of sway even with all four down, the wheels chocked and the hitch jack down. Is this normal?
