Expert Answers about Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite Travel Trailer


  • Solution for JET-3500 Trailer Jack that Dropped Inner Leg Into Outer Leg
  • Sounds like a damaged screw/gear inside your trailer jack. That specific model is no longer made so for a replacement the upgraded version part # JET-5000 would be your best option. This has a higher capacity so it would work a little quicker too.

  • Solution to Allow Use of Friction Sway Control with Any Ball Mount
  • Since you need more drop than the ball mount you have now which has a friction sway control attached to side of it the easiest solution would be to go with a bracket like the part # RP26003 which fits over the ball mount platform and allows you to basically use whichever ball mount you need to provide correct rise/drop to tow trailer level. We also have weld on tabs for the bracket as well like with the # 3442. I also attached a link to a page that details how to pick out the correct...

  • Can 3.24 Watt Gustafson RV Reading Light # 277-000334 Replace Assembly with Lower Wattage
  • You shouldn't have any issue replacing the lower 2 watt light fixture in your RV with the 3.24 watt Gustafson Reading Light # 277-000334, but the potential for any issues is dependent on what else is connected to that circuit and what the line is rated for. I can't imagine that this circuit on your Forest River Rockwood is cutting it so close that anything over a 2 watt fixture would be too much for it to handle but the only way to be sure would be to determine all the loads connected...

  • Which Electric Jack Will Fit a 2007 Rockwood Ultra Lite Travel Trailer?
  • From what I could find, there are a few different models/options for a 2007 Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite and the weights do vary a bit. However, none of said options will put your tongue weight anywhere over 2,000 pounds. With that said, the etrailer.com Electric Jack w/ Footplate # EJ-3520-WBX will be a great option. This is rated to lift up to 3,500 pounds and includes a drop leg for increased lift and can save time when raising or lowering. The LED light on the front of the jack...

  • Can Lioinshead Trailer Wheel Center Caps Stainless Steel Be Painted White?
  • While we do not sell these wheel caps in white, there are certainly ways to effectively paint the Lionshead Trailer Wheel Center Cap - 3.19" Pilot - Stainless Steel # LHCS102. You will likely want to sand down the wheel cap, then coat it with primer. Then you should be all set to put some white paint of your liking on it so that it will match your white wheels. There are many different ways to accomplish this; I recommend stopping into your local hardware store or paint shop and asking...

  • Least Expensive Camera Setup for 2017 Rockwood UltraLite Camper
  • The least expensive option for a camera setup for your Rockwood that was pre-wired for a Furrion setup is the # FOS43TASF. Anything else would be much more difficult to install and honestly wouldn't work nearly as well. The Furrion kits by far have the best reception so it wouldn't be worth it to try and find something less expensive as this would give you poor reception overall.

  • Will Advent Air RV Air Conditioner # ACM135C Wok on Rockwood Pop-Up Camper
  • The Advent Air RV Air Conditioner # ACM135C referenced in your question should actually work perfectly on a pop-up camper like your 2005 Rockwood because of its smaller size and the fact that it also includes the ceiling vent assembly. This is a non-ducted unit which is the way to go for your camper since it doesn't already have ducts built into it for venting. This is a really nice system that also comes with a start capacity that uses stored energy to kick on the AC and a built-in thermostat...

  • What Torflex Lift Kit Do I Need For My 2022 Rockwood Mini Lite RLT2509S-W?
  • I can definitely help and point you in the right direction. We have a few lift kits available and it will just depend on exactly what kind of axles you have on your camper. The Lift kit # K71-725-02 that you were looking at will #12 Torflex axles with 5,500-7,000-lb capacities. I did look up some specs on your camper. I was not able to confirm exactly what axles they put on there, but looking at the GVW and CCC you may have a slightly smaller axle than a 5,500 lb. If this is the case...

  • Does Weight of Strait Line Weight Distribution System Count as Tongue Weight
  • This is a really great question, but the weight of the weight distribution system actually does not count as additional tongue weight. We've asked our WD system manufacturers and they'd told us that the WD system basically becomes a part of the trailer hitch on the vehicle so it's weight does not get factored. The weight of the Strait Line system part # RP66073 that you referenced is 83 lbs and this does not include a shank. The version of this system that does include a shank part # RP66083...
