First, I assume your TV will accommodate the associated loaded weights of the Eagle 28.5RKDS (10,500lb GVWR).
Bearings, brakes, tires (as mentioned), and I would also check the leaf springs and shackles for signs of wear/damage. Since the FW has been sitting for a few years it may be wise to inspect all wall/roof joints, seams, vents, skylights, etc., for caulk/seal integrity.
When purchasing a 'used' RV I refer folks to a "new RV" PDI (link below) and inspect appropriate items off the PDI list....., especially since you plan on using the FW right away.
PDI:
