Skid Wheel Recommendation for 2017 Cardinal by Forest River
Question:
I have a 2017 Cardinal by Forest River 5th wheel RV. This RV weights 14200 and the distance from the rear tire to the skid plate is 150 inches. Our driveway has a rise/slope from the road and the skid plates drag about 2 feet until the wheels get on the driveway. We have to enter the driveway at an angle then straighten out once up the slope. We are looking for rollers that will support the weight of our 5th wheel. We also believe that they will need to be able to swivel to accommodate the angle approach.

I think what you're looking for is the skid wheels part # UF48-979012 since you said you wanted wheels that swivel. These are designed for RVs up to 34 feet in length and would work well for your application.
