I could not agree more!
Hopefully you have CNC machines to knock them out for you.
I'm interested in probably 2 or 3 now/ASAP/Very soon and probably 1 or 2 more later.
When you figure out a price, please let us know!!
Well lacking an official hardness tester that time honored test is usually pretty good indicator. I have a 2" pin where I'll be tomorrow, I'll check that one and see. Looks like it might not be an issue. Thats good as it will make the parts less expensive...
I wonder if the king pin or the hitch plate is heat treated? Do you have a hardness tester?

Will also get a 35-45' lowboy to use for... whatever... :)
Northeast Polk Co, not to far from Polk City.
Not sure this should be in this forum or the trailer forum but since it is on the truck, not on the trailer.....
I have been told that some of the 5th wheel plates used by the military have a side to side tilting feature. Apparently there are some wedges you insert to limit the movement while...
