Removing fifth wheel ramps.

Buy a three pack of the rig dog in case you pass on this truck you can run two other VINs

also, those ramps won’t affect you at all pulling a dry van right? Easy to remove when you are ready.

 

Ya probably worth it if your serious about the truck. And like someone else said, you could run for a while with those ramps on with a dry van. I did with a chip trailer which is basically the same. It will only affect you on a sharp decline like an approach into some truck stops and businesses.

 

Sounds good

 

If you go with the one with the ramps, be careful if you use a torch to remove the ramps. Protect airbags and any airlines that might get hot slag on them. We were working on my old FLD dump a few years back and thought we had everything protected but a piece of slag missed the welding blanket and burned a hole in one of my airlines. Did not find out until started truck to move it and had massive airleak

 

I don't know your operation but that truck frame and 5th wheel was designed for those ramps. If you drop and hook much they will come in real handy. without them the trailer will hit the tires when trying to hook up and you will be cranking dollies.
Also the ramps help with keeping 5th wheel divots off the front of the trailer.
I've never considered them RGN ramps. I don't get that part. I do know what a RGN is.
