So I'm tearing into every cabinet of my new (to me!) camper and I find the following two items:

I'm thinking the square canvas thing with the snaps goes to my screen room (which I've not tried to install yet).  The other thing I'm not sure of.  Any ideas?

What are the letters that are cast into the top of the 1st item? It looks like it is made to be bolted down to a stationary surface and it appears to open up so that a round bar or pipe can be temporarily captured and quick released. I can't think of anything on a PU that would be like that......Maybe a bike rack on the back bumper???? :confused: (not a good idea).

The 2nd item looks like a cover. It's about the same size as the access doors for the fridge. Maybe someone made a cover to keep the pilot from blowing out on windy days????? :confused:  If that's the case, it's not a good idea either. Check around for snaps somewhere on the camper.....

Behind curtain #1 you have the clamp for your tongue jack.  It bolts to the verticle portion of the A-frame, the tongue jack runs up through the middle of it, and then when you are ready to tow, you crank your wheel up with the hand crank on the top of the tongue jack, then swing that black padded lever on your item there to release that clamping assembly and finally.......slide your entire tongue jack upward until the wheel is tucked up into the A-frame.

Behind Curtain #2 you have part of the skirting for your screen room. That may be the flap that hangs from the snaps located just above your camper's tire, to cover the tire and make your screen room look all finished off.  You should have more skirting that snaps to the rest of the camper's bottom and finishes it all off.

2 nice finds!

I knew I'd get an answer here.  
Thanks!
