Maybe cuz, I am getting ooooold. lol
I have been there, but not done that particular one. I have pulled regular b trains, plenty of long doubles too, but have not actually pulled this set up, just seen them. They are not near as popular as regular double side dump setups, probably for two reasons, most of our lead trailers are 3 axle, then a 2 axle, then another 3 or at least 2 axle trailer. The set ups I have sen with the fifth wheel on the trailer have all been four axle leads, so actually lose and axle and would have quite a bit less gross weight than a standard dolly setup.
Plus if using it as a single trailer, at least the one axle is too far back to get weight on, and a guy can't push on the fifth wheel if needed to either.

You are apparently talking about an inverted fifth wheel like a lot of oilfield floats had.
Fine construction out of OK city had all their trailers rigged with one back in the 70's.
I have never seen a ups one, but if that is what you are talking about, I have seen a lot of flatbeds rigged like that.booley Thanks this. -
