Looks like you're running the Kenda KR25 Radial Trailer Tire with 12" Aluminum HWT Wheel #AM31208HWT - thanks for the photo! The tire is rated for 1,220 lbs at 65 psi so I can definitely see why you're experiencing bounce. You can…
The hub and bearing kit I recommend for your Jayco popup camper is part #AKIHUB-440-2-2K. This kit includes the idler hubs, bearings, races, seal, grease cap, and lug nuts. The hub has a 4 on 4 bolt pattern. The hub assembly kit you came from will…
For a high-quality trailer tire that is size 4.80-12 and wheel with a 4 on 4" bolt pattern I strongly recommend the Kenda KR25 ST145R12 Radial Trailer Tire with 12" Aluminum Wheel #AM31208HWT. This wheel and tire combo is load range D with…
I recommend using the Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" White Spoke Wheel part #AM35351DX for 4 bolt or part #AM31199DX for 5 bolt to replace the 205/65-10 tires on a Keystone Camplite. This new wheel/tire combo should just bolt…
If you're going to use a winch to raise and lower your popup you will want a winch that power loads both in and out. With a winch that will only power load in you will only be able to raise the popup and not lower with the winch. We have the…
One way to determine the lift and jack height you need would be to measure the jack you currently have on your 2018 Intech Luna RV. If this is not possible, or you still aren't sure, you can also determine the correct jack using the coupler…
Since both a ST145/R12 size tire, like the Kenda Karrier S-Trail #AM10130, and a 5.30-12 size tire, like the Kenda K353 #AM10068, fit a 12 inch wheel, a ST145/R12 size tire can replace a 5.30-12 size tire. Keep in mind that these tires do have…
Kenda trailer tires are primarily made in China like most trailer tires. The only Radial trailer tires that I'm aware of that are made in the United States are the Goodyear Endurance line. Carlisle has a bias ply line of tires made in the States,…
The wheel and tire combos we sell are not balanced at the factory. When the tire is mounted to the wheel, the high (heavy) spot on the wheel is matched to the low (light) spot on the tire, which leaves the wheel and tire somewhat balanced. You may…
The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 5-1/2 #AKHD-555-35-K will fit the spindle on your trailer to replace your AL-KO 8700 hub, but this does have a 5 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. My information is the AL-KO…
Hey Edwin, so since you would be replacing a Dometic Duotherm that Advent Air kit that would make the most sense would be the part #ACDOM135 which was designed for replacing Dometic units so the install would be simpler. This will work great with…
In your case I do recommend going with the larger 205/65-10 tire size for a few reasons; you'll have a higher load rating and you'll have a higher speed rating. I will say it's important to make sure you have the tires filled to the…

What kind of towing gear do I need for a pop-up camper?
You’ll need a properly rated hitch, ball mount, and hitch ball for your vehicle. Many pop-up campers work well with a weight-distributing hitch to improve towing stability. Don’t forget to check your trailer wiring for lights and brakes.
How can I keep my pop-up camper's battery charged while I’m towing?
You can actually connect the camper’s battery to your vehicle’s charging system. This way, your vehicle will provide a maintenance charge while you’re driving. It’s super handy for keeping the battery ready to go when you get to the campsite.
What’s the best sealant to use for my pop-up camper’s roof?
If you’re resealing the roof, I’d recommend a self-leveling sealant. It’s designed for flat surfaces, so it’ll spread out evenly and do a great job keeping water out. Perfect for keeping your camper dry and in good shape!
What’s the best way to clean and maintain the canvas on my pop-up camper?
Use a mild soap and warm water to clean the canvas—no harsh chemicals, as they can damage the material. For stubborn stains, a specialized RV canvas cleaner works great. Don’t forget to let the canvas dry completely before packing it up to prevent mold or mildew.
Can I add air conditioning to my pop-up camper?
Yes, many pop-up campers can be upgraded with a roof-mounted AC unit or a portable unit. Just check your camper’s roof weight limits and electrical system to make sure it can handle the added load.
Can I upgrade my pop-up camper’s interior?
Absolutely! You can add LED lights for better energy efficiency, upgrade the cushions for more comfort, or even install a small portable fridge if it doesn’t already have one. These little changes can make a big difference in your camping experience.
