What is the correct size socket to fit the rear stabilizers? I would like to purchase one for my cordless drill prior to picking up the new Cruiser. I understand it is far easier to use the mechanical option VS the manual cranking.

3/4" is the size on my rear jacks. I some times use impact wrench also.

camping world sells a socket that fits a jacobs chuck just perfect - I have not purchased it yet and have been using different adapters to make a 3/8 x 3/4 socket workwith my cordless , but I lose alot of useabe torque with the slop in adapters.

3/4" with a 14 vold cordless works great for me.

Brian, you do not need a lot of torque.

Remember, thay are called STABILIZERS, not rear jacks.

As I ave found, too much torque "bends" things...made my floor squeek.
