Replacement Wheels and Tires For a 2011 Forest River Rockwood Freedom 1970 Pop Up Camper
I recommend using the Kenda Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Black Mod Wheel # AM31990 on your 2011 Forest River Rockwood Freedom 1970 pop up camper. These tires are the heavier rated D range which is good for up to 1,610lbs per tire. The Tire # AM1ST77 itself also carries a 5-year warranty from the manufacturer. Since you only have the 1-1/2" of clearance I cannot recommend moving to a larger size wheel or tire. Be sure to use some Tire Covers # 290-3974 to protect the...

Is Extra Grease Needed When Installing the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 3.5K Axles
The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K comes pre-lubed which means the bearings are already packed for you but you would still want to add extra grease to the spindle and then fill the hubs as needed prior to use. If you don't already have some compatible grease I would simply recommend ordering the Marine Wheel Bearing Grease part # L154FR which comes in 3-3oz cartridges that you can use with or without a grease gun. The color of the grease won't matter as far as compatibility...

Electric Trailer Jack Recommendation for a 2015 Forest River Rockwood Freedom 2280
On any trailer jack (let alone electric trailer jack) I've seen the outer tube is a consistent diameter. The only time the tube changes diameter is when you go from the outer tube to the inner tube, so it sounds like you'll need to cut open that lower opening just a little more. For an electric trailer jack I recommend the etrailer # EJ-3520-BBX if you have a battery bank on your 2015 Rockwood Freedom you want to tie it into, or the Buyers Products # 3370093500 if you don't have a battery...

How to Determine Replacement Grease Seal
If you have a hub with bearings, you have a grease or you would have had major issues with your bearings not retaining grease. I'm not certain what happened to it, but I can tell you exactly how to determine what replacement you'll need. You will need to use digital caliper and measure your spindle to the thousandths of an inch where the bearings and grease seal ride. You can use the photo I've attached to see exactly where you need to measure. I have added a link to our entire selection...

Can Curt Weight Distribution Head C17307 Fit Equal-i-zer Shank
Yes the Curt weight distribution head part # C17307 is compatible with the shank part # EQ90-02-4600 that you also referenced. These two parts together would give you a really long ball mount setup with an adjustable height. You'd also need the hardware kit part # C17350 as well to bolt the head to the shank.

Replacement Bearing Kit, Bearing Buddy, and Brake Assembly
To ensure we get you the correct parts, you will need to pull one of your hubs of your axle and get the bearing number on both the inner and outer bearing and the seal on the back. The numbers are printed right on the face of each of these components. Those numbers will help me get you the correct replacement parts. Bearings are very specific sizes, so this will help us get exactly what you need. If you can't get the numbers off the bearings due to bearing failure, then you can measure...

Gauge of Wire for Brake Output and 12 Volt Accessory of Brake Controller Install Kit ETBC7
The # ETBC7 kit uses 10 gauge wire for the brake output and 12 volt accessory circuits. 14 gauge wire like you mentioned would not be enough and would most likely give you weak brake performance.

How to Determine if the SportRack Pop-Up Camper Roof Rack Fits a 2022 Forest River Rockwood Pop-Up
The SportRack Pop-Up Camper Roof Rack # SR1020 will fit your 2022 Forest River Rockwood Freedom pop-up trailer as long as your trailer is not wider than 85-1/2" and does not have rounded or curved edges. From what I could find on your 2022 Forest River Rockwood Freedom 1940 LTD pop-up trailer, it is 84" wide, so you would be good there. I was not able to locate any solid information about the edges, but we do show the rack as a compatible fit for your camper.

We do have an option for you to add a roof rack to your 2005 Forest River Rockwood 1940LTD that will allow you to add bike racks to carry your bikes, and what you can use is the SportRack Pop-Up Camper Roof Rack # SR1020. This rack is designed to fit pop-up campers that are a maximum of 85-1/2" wide, and will not fit campers that have roofs with rounded or curved edges, but from my research it looks like your pop-up is 85" wide and has straight edges, though I do recommend verifying this...

Recommended Replacement Tires For a 2003 Forest River Rockwood 1940LTD Camping Trailer
I recommend using the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10130 on your 2003 Forest River Rockwood 1940LTD. While this tire does only have a capacity of 1,220lbs per tire it does exceed the GVWR for your trailer. Yes, the Load Range E Kenda # AM10140 does have a higher capacity of 1,520lbs per tire but this can lead to more bouncing of the trailer. Which will transfer more shock inside the trailer and can be felt by your tow vehicle. As far as the speed difference...

Recommended Cover for a Forest River Rockwood 232ESP
I checked with Forest River and the listed box length of the Forest River Rockwood 232ESP is listed at 12' therefore, the Adco SFS AquaShed RV Cover for Pop Up Campers up to 14' Long part # 290-12293 would be a perfect fit. This cover has an integrated cinching system which can provide a tight fit, weighted buckles for an easy install, and comes with a two year warranty. We have found the 12' # 290-12292 to be slightly too short for your camper.

Forest River Powerwinch Switch Boot
The Pollak # PK25370 is designed to fit a standard toggle switch which is what appears to be on your winch. It is compatible with switches that have a 15/32 or .4688 diameter threaded mounting stem. If you have access to a digital caliper like # PTW80157, it'll be easy to get that diameter off your existing switch. Unfortunately, RV's and campers aren't like passenger vehicles that have a ready reference that tells you which model uses these parts. If you could reply with the model number...

Will the Xtreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack Work On an Incline and Does it Have a Brake
I do have an option for you but the Xtreme Off-Road Ratcheting Trailer Jack part # ORJW1SU isn't quite cutout out for what you're wanting. Instead, I recommend the Trailer Valet 5X Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover part # STC-V211 which is rated for more weight, is easier to move the trailer with, and has a brake. It can also handle slight inclines and slopes. The really neat feature is that you can use a power drill to move the trailer with the Drill Attachment part # TVDA.

Roof Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Popup Camper Roof Rack
For your application I recommend going with the Inno Shaper 100 # IN569 if your roof rack has square bars, or the Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack # INA510 if you have any other style of crossbars. These cargo carriers have an aluminum construction so if water happens to get inside the bars it won't rust like the steel carriers do. The Shaper 100 weighs in at 17.4 lbs and has a weight capacity of 110 lbs which will be perfect for you since the weight of the cargo basket will factor in to the...

If you have crossbars on your 2017 Forest River Flagstaff 228D popup camper that have a crossbar spread of 24 inches, a great basket option is the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 57" Long x 42" Wide # RMCB02. Since the basket measures 57 inches long x 42 inches wide, you have plenty of space to mount your cargo bag. Your crossbar spread also fits within the compatibility range of the basket.
