You pronounced "Fontaine" perfectly, and personally I think you can NEVER have "too many" chains when lifting large heavy objects, especially odd shaped ones you want to keep balanced.

[@bereketmol4227]

Thank you Francisco!

[@Familyfun2006]

I'm heading to la CA where is your shop located I need some diagnostic done please respond promptly thanks

[@matthewhansen5008]

You can sit fifth wheel face down on top of trash can that is made out of a barrel. Makes it so that you don't have to squat down to work on it.

[@peaceonelove]

if the safety mechanism is enacted and you're hooked to a trailer, how would you get un hooked to do the fifth wheel repair, I'm stuck under a trailer!

[@jaimep5706]

I have a question. I have a dd15, 09, Freightliner Cascadia, in have a coolent leak behind the fuel doser on the exhaust clap. And because there’s coolant coming from somewhere it won’t reach a high temperature to let it region. Can you help?

[@edwinmonterroza7426]

Mine has the plastic on top I think it’s greaseless I’m not sure but the plastic is popping out.

[@chrisgoodwin5190]

How much do you charge for this?

[@kienhuynh7240]

Where is your shop location?

[@1masut]

Fontaine has a recall on certain models of fifth wheels. They'll replace it free

[@anthonyallen2301]

How do you utilize the recall

[@1masut]

@@anthonyallen2301 You can call them direct. They will ask you for the serial number on the fifth wheel. If it's under the recall they will send it to a shop you decide to have the work done at.

[@ivantafolla9761]

[@franciscoamayaYT]

[@beetle681]
