Hub and Drum Assembly to Upgrade to 6-Lugs on 2022 Forest River R-Pod 153 Travel Trailer

Question:

I have a 2022 Rpod 153 travel trailer. It has a lippert 3500lb axle PN 774026. I am wanting to change to a 6 bolt hub vs the 5 bolt it has now. Not sure if this would be correct? AKHD-655-35-EZ-K

Yes, the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 3.5K Axles # AKHD-655-35-EZ-K is what you need to upgrade to a 6-bolt pattern on your 2022 Forest River R-Pod 153 travel trailer.

If you don't already have wheels with the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern you can do 1 of 2 things; get whole new tire and wheel combos or remove your tires and have them mounted on new wheels.

To replace both the tires and wheels I recommend going with the Provider ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire with 15" White Mod Wheel # TA27VR but if you just want to replace the wheels I recommend checking out the Aluminum Viking Series Valhalla Trailer Wheel # TA65ZR. The combo uses a standard white spoke wheel but the Viking Series Valhalla is a bit more flashy and will definitely be a conversation starter at your campsites.

Attached are some review and installation videos for you to check out.
