Hey Dale, thanks for reaching out!
To get an awning and screened in room on your cargo trailer I recommend installing the Swagman Roamer LT Roof Rack # S80510 and using the 6' 6" Long x 6' 6" Wide Thule Overcast Awning # TH8002AW604 with the Mosquito Net Walls # TH8002X1001.
You may have to offset the roof rack a little to get enough overhang for the awning to mount, but this will work for your application.

Hey Dale, how did the setup with the Swagman roof rack and Thule awning turn out on your cargo trailer? Did the offset give you enough overhang for the screened room to fit right? Your update could make it easier for the next person working on a similar trailer setup.
