Last I checked you could rent a protote for around $300 a day. But it is well worth it.
5th wheel weight box is a 4ft x 4ft by 2 or 3ft tall steel box with an open top. All sides welded together. Use 1/2" plate. With a kingpin welded thru the center lower box.
Either fill with concrete...
The air bag issue was the reason Ron had a hard time with BART and the M322 with the FLU419. The HET wasn't designed to pull from the pintle even with all that weight from the mk15a1 on it it still has a push from the forces on the bag. It feels weird. Won't lead to a wreck really on BART ...
Rent a protote wrecker unit for your pete. You will be fine. Much safer than a towbar and faster
Tow baring it with air bag rears on the Pete won't be much fun. Lateral push on the air bags isn't good.
