    It’s easy to judge, but I’ve told, I’m not a mechanic, have short exp and didn’t know about 5th wheel mechanism default (factory) position. And dealer didn’t tell me about it, I don’t blame anybody, it’s my fault that I missed that problem. That tractor was used for doubles, that’s why mechanism was moved to the tail of the frame (dealers said when I called him). Who can’t give the advice don’t waste your time to leave ####-comment, plz.
    Regarding the problem: I’ve paid 220$ to move 5th wheel mechanism back to default position, about 2 hours in the shop.

    This site has a lot of trucker trolls, to be sure. When you aren't the one looking for advice, they are sometimes pretty funny.

    But there are a lot of people here that will offer good advice too. Sometimes, yesterday's troll is today's good Samaritan with exactly the knowledge you need.

    If you want the good you can get from here, you have to also deal with the not-so-useful.

    Also note: The more attention and reaction you give to internet trolls, the more you amuse them and encourage them to troll you again.
