I'm not quite sure what you mean by different hub and brake assembly than other trailers as there are many different spindles and axles that are fairly common. For your 2014 Forest River Rockwood Windjammer, the bearings and replacement seals can be found fairly easily and I'd be happy to assist.

You will need to pull one hub off your trailer and then check the face of each of the bearings for a printed number. The inner bearing will have one number and the outer bearing will have another. Then the seal will have another number. These can be really easy to find at times and difficult at other times, so we then move to measuring with a digital caliper like # PTW80157 because they are precise measurements.

I've attached a photo of where to measure the spindle if your bearing numbers are not found. I can get you a confirmed fit based on these measurements for a hub/drum assembly and can determine your brake assembly based on that. Please see the attached photo to help.
