Air Safe Hitches
Sometimes, even the biggest pickup truck can’t take everything you need. In cases like this, you’ll be towing a trailer behind you. Some trailers use a fifth-wheel configuration, requiring the coupling to be installed in the bed of a pickup truck as a towing vehicle. In America, “fifth wheel” is therefore sometimes used to describe these campers. If you drive one of these, you probably use it to travel long distances and with a lot of heavy cargo, perhaps lawn equipment or even livestock animals. We don’t need to tell you that these long drives can get quite bumpy and uncomfortable! That is because the extra weight of the camper pulls your truck backwards while you are trying to drive forwards, adding lots of tugging and jarring. Of course, it is easy to see why your gas mileage and transmission would be negatively affected by this as well. You don’t need to give up your long drives or heavy cargo though. You just need to look into 5th wheel hitch adapter plate.
Do not worry if your pickup truck is not yet set up for a 5th wheel hitch. An adaptor plate can be put on quickly. This is a fast and dependable way to convert your gooseneck trailer hitch into a set of 5th wheel rails to accept a 5th wheel hitch.
If your ride is uncomfortable, you are probably relaying on rubber and being let down. It doesn’t need to be this way any longer, even if you need to pull something truly large like a horse trailer or food truck.
