    A or B. But really you should back under till the 5th wheel disappears. Stop, get out, make sure 5th is flat and not at an angle, then back underneath and do a or b.

    Thanks for the answer.

    I understand the procedure, but only A or B is correct. It’s the same answer. So you have to randomly guess. Glitch.

    I read it and laughed.

    Well first off your supposed to check to make sure king pin is locked in place and jaws are locked. Than proceed with tug test. And I never look back after tug test unless my trailer tandems are dragging.

    I tug first because I am already there. If it holds, I Check the pin when I do the landing gear.

    I pull until trailer skids just a little. Then set tractor.

    Crawl under there and eyeball that big U joint, handle, spring etc. Everything should be in place.

    No matter what or how rushed I am I always recheck that #### thing before getting in.
     
    Lav-25 and tinytim Thank this.

    Ok everyone. Thanks for the schooling, but I thought my humor would show up.

    There’s the exact same answer, but one is right, and one is wrong. You don’t know if it’s A or B.

    It made me laugh.

    BTW the timed tests are excellent. I really like taking them over and over!
