    Harvey gave you a great link to check out.. To me one of the most important things is establishing a set hook and drop routine and sticking to it. You have two fifth wheels plus the pintle hook so there is three times the opportunity for a hooking mistake. Check it twice and when you're done with that check the set a third time..

    Heavy trailer in front, if dropping your back wagon on a public street, pull your con-gear far enough away from the back trailer so no one can park in-between.
