Adjustments to 5th wheel

12,500 on the steers.

Leave yourself wiggle room for the drives.

 

I drive a reefer, so I'm a bit heavier in the nose and I keep mine slid all the way back. When my drives are at 34k, my steers are at 12k with full tanks of fuel. I never move it.

 

just forward of the middle of the axles, has always been my spot on van trailers.

tankers had fixed 5th wheels.

 

Theyre not wrong... if it can carry the weight

And they dont mind shifting their pin 2 times a day

And their truck isnt stretched
Or flatbed trailer

 

All other things considered keeping it for it is possible it will handle better to

 

So this is unacceptable?

11500
32500
34500

Rides nice, perfectly legal (flatbed spread though)

 

2,500 on the trailer? What are you talking about?

1st he stated it’s a spread so 34,500 is A ok, 2nd with a closed tandem set up he would only be 500 over on the trailer.

 

Beleive it or not, there are loads that stay 100% outside of california.

Its pretty clear im poking fun at most of the people in this thread

And taking it further, thats a truck with a 285 wb, with my kingpin there and a 24# trailer (kingpin setting) i have a headache rack AND can run 9'6" in front of my trailer.
