How to Slide Fifth Wheel Step by Step Instructions

Make Sure You Jerk truck as you would while attaching to a trailer and while sliding it, do it gently otherwise your fifth wheel can brake stop bar and you will drop the trailer. For Best Fuel Efficiency You want to keep fifth wheel as close to the front possible but the draw back you might be overweight on your steers specially if you hauling reefer. Optimal setting is be closer to the middle.

Pins are not going back into rails, even if I lock the air slide.

POV : It’s 2AM you’re 1K over and trying to get this shit working

[@kingsleysarfo.]

Wait so it’s opposite than the tandems ? You slide to the problem to take weight off but for the 5th wheel you slide to the the place you want to add weight to ?

[@steve17cool]

Max, my 1506 truck doesn't lock the fifth wheel.

[@Brownn32]

How can I lower the suspension if there is no button?

[@davidbenjamin7165]

Will sliding the fifth wheel forward make the ride less bouncy?

[@jacobstaten2366]

I wonder if you could have some way to measure it, like a rope with a squeaker on the end. However many notches is how much rope you stretch out. When you hear the squeak or a crunch.

[@Ghofy]

Thx

[@wilfred_michael]

Tractor or trailer in?

[@BIGMAN7917]

Man fuck college or any school. You can learn everything you want thru KZbin!!!😂😂😂

[@RealCoachRonn]

I'm sitting here scaling & pissed off right now. This trailer is maxed out and the pins will not go in enough... WD40, etc etc. Wth? 2019 Cascadia P4

[@RoadHacksbyMax]

Real Dude Uprising rock trailer back and force with pins not out it should help

[@jakefish9128]

They never taught this in trucking school so imagine my surprise when I slammed that shit backwards

[@amoshillmusic]

I don’t have a airbag suspension button to control the airbags 🙄

[@TypeFresh305]

My 5th wheel won't slide for some reason

[@johnrodriquez1933]

Damn weigh station in Arkansas

[@R.O.T.C._SEEM]

Don't have the lower airbag switch 😮‍💨

[@briananderson3801]

Omg really

[@Nikes62]

You didn't discuss reasons you would do this. Also, can't hesr you above alarm, don't talk while alarm is on.

[@teogonzalez95]

I wonder how much pounds each hole 🕳 is valued to

[@jaredpelletier3157]

It’s about 500lbs per hole

[@michaelstroud1530]

I always leave my fifth wheel unlocked. Then I never have to adjust it. I guess it just adjust itself wherever it needs to be.. next time I scale out I'm going to leave my trailer tandem unlocked as well works really nice.
