Do you know what road that was on? I noticed you live in the same general area as I do, and was wondering if that was around here... do you know the guy or just found a pic?

I think that picture is several years old.

Does anybody know the story? Somebody fouled up badly!

 

[lizzyhermit]

do 5er's use chains ?

do fivers use safety chains as us TT boys do?

 

[RustyJC]

Nope. Safety chains aren't required on kingpin-type (5th wheel) hitches.

I saw this same pic a few years back at a shop that does hitches.



It had a caption under it that said "NEW SPEED BOAT $30,000

NEW PICKUP TRUCK $35,000 NEW UNDERWEAR $5 QUALITY TRAILER HITCH PRICELESS"

We use safety chains on our 5er eight horse slant load trailers. These are the ball style 5ers. Would hate to loose some good friends in a mishap.

A ball type 5th wheel is actually called a gooseneck hitch, and chains are required by law. An actual 5th wheel hitch is very similar to the hitches used by semi trucks, and do not require chains.
