    Removing 5th wheel hitch

    I would not attempt to line up all 4 puck mounts while is hanging from the trailer. I’d simply back the truck under the hitch, use the trailer jacks to set it on the tail gate, then lower the hitch via the trailer jacks then release it then slide the hitch into the puck system, latch everything...

    Removing 5th wheel hitch

    I completely agree with you, I’ve only been towing for 50 years and haven’t seen it either. I’m just thinking that if the kingpin box is rated for towing 15.5 K why can’t it pick up a 225lbs hitch. Once it’s in the bed of the truck I can unhook it and relocate it to lock it in the truck but I...

    Ride difference between 2500 and 3500

    I recently upgraded from a 2009 3500 DRW to a 2022 3500 DRW and I can undoubtedly say that the 2022 rides much smoother than the 2009, love the air ride suspension!!! Keeping in mind that it is a 1 ton truck the ride is a little stiff and more noticeable on certain road conditions. With just a...
