JOST Fifth Wheel Fitting
The JOST Fifth Wheel Fitting acts as a guide piece used in the coupling area where trailers meet the fifth wheel top plate. This fitting is frequently installed to keep trailer kingpins aligned during hook-up and disconnection, minimizing misalignment or damage to the coupling plate. Commonly mounted near the throat of the fifth wheel, the JOST SK73205-07 piece contributes to smoother coupling transitions without excessive side force.
