ROCKFORD A212HW tow wheel

I,m not sure, exactly, the technical name is called but I had a walkthru on the camper I bought and thought there was a wheel on the tongue of the camper.
I learned that the wheel is optional (after seeing the demo with a wheel). Does anyone know where I can look for getting a price on this? The dealer said they would sell me one for $30. I need this to maneuver it to my garage.

Assume you want one of these:

(PS: It's RockWOOD A212HW, not RockFORD - I ought to know! Maybe you used to live here? Or watched too much James Garner?)

Are you asking about a wheel for the bottom end of the tongue jack (a wheel instead of a jack foot)?

And no. I need the wheel that pins on the stand, not a dolly

You may want to look through your storage compartments .. I found my wheel underneath the bed, along with a spare battery box ... you may find out that you have one already

you're exactly right. The dealer said the wheel will cost about $30-$40.

Yes. right now the jack has only a square foot to sit on and there's an option to pin a wheel onto it.
