Yes I thought of that back in 2005 for all three set up also use king ping to put on bottom n rhook it to the truck to pick it up along with safety chain to secure truck ii wish I knew somebody to talk too to patent it
No offense, but you are incorrect on how you tow with the Kingpin attachment, but your fifth wheel attachment and hook up looked pretty good. They have a video on Miller Industries page that shows the proper towing technique with the kingpin attachment.
Seeing this makes me miss towing. It's weird, now that I have all this training, knowledge and experience I am no longer physically capable of doing the job. I thought about working in management but then I woke up. I don't need the stress anymore.
With the reach so far out, it seems that too much weight would be transferred from the steering of the tow truck. And it would put added stress on the reach extend cylinder and frame. Assuming the trailer is at full weight. Or sucking in the reach would be a bonus in making turns and making a shorter truck and trailer would be better for travel. Right???
+Andrew Brenneman One thing I think I failed to mention is that, with this single axle Pete, we only haul empty trailers, so the weight wasn't an issue and we could steer. And yes a shorter truck would make it easier to turn but then you'd run into the same problem you mentioned in the first place...no steering.
Exactly Andrew, also the rear axle is way back not centered under the bed. That gives you plenty of weight distribution between your stinger and the front trailer axle.
Yeah I've never seen any trailer with the fifth wheel plate upside down and on the trailer itself, You can, however, use that kingpin attachment with that setup but upside down to haul a truck with a fifth-wheel plate backward by lifting it with the kingpin.
Any way possible you can send me information on where i can get that fifth wheel and RV trailer attachment so i can use for my wrecker? Plz email or send it to my link. Thnx in advance
Wow. Ok. Where to start with moron of the year.. 2 blue lines? Ya, its a fucking wrecker not a transport. The glad hands are obviously marked blue and red. Not everyone needs a huge line that is colored to tell. 4 guys? Ya, its called fucking training you dumbass. "Ok, next person to go through 10 minutes of training. Remember not to leave and make us any money as you wait an hour for your turn" Its called thats how it was designed, you keep it from moving up and down if you so please VICTOR ACEVEDO IS A VERY STUPID PERSON REMINDING US EDUCATION SUCKS
how do you pull a camper with a king pin ??
IF THE TRAILER IS EMPTY IT'S NOT THAT HEAVY THAT TOW TRUCK IT'S OK GOOD JOB GUYS

Philly Tow Squad in Kissimmee thanks you for your video.
Thanks for the comment. Tandem axel is as big as we get being 30 plus miles from an interstate.

where did you buy those attachments?
Hey! They figured out how to tow my 1 ton Chevy upside down!

You ever thought about being a trainer or teacher ?
the kingpin is the same as what the semi's use but only its a light duty version of them

All the fifth wheel campers that I have seen had a kingpin on the trailer. I don't think you can attach a kingpin to a kingpin.

I believe he probably meant a gooseneck trailer, not a fifth wheel

Y would you tow anything with a tow truck
the thing he said he would use for a fifth wheel trailer is no true which it can only be used on a goose neck or horse traler hook ups.
Won't work on mine. Mine uses a ball. Won't work on my 5th wheel either lol.
That's actually used to haul trucks with a fifth wheel plate if you mount that attachment upside down, Miller industries made a video on it.
Muito bom .
plus that would have to be an empty trailer because if it had anything in it it would be too heavy and flip back the trauck
LMFAO
2 BLUE LINES
NO RED ?
4 GUYS SET UP
WHAT'S WITH THE CHAIN HOOKS UNDER THE PLATE WOW. .
TOW CHANNEL VERY GOOD VIDEO I LEARNED WHAT NOT TO DO..

THATS NOTHING IVE HAULED A 53 FOOT TRAILER WITH A 01 FORD F350 SELF LOADING WRECKER TOWED IT 11 MILES O EVEN HAVE VIDEO OF IT ILL POST TO RUclips
So you're what we in the towing industry call a jackass?
That’s obnoxious and dangerous.
Reckless, dangerious and overloading the truck and wrecker equipment don't make you a hero it makes you a reckless operator.
You never posted
