The greaseless fifth wheel pad is made from Teflon. It's a lot cleaner and they work very well.

They stay on the trailer by way of a ring that you press around the king pin. This way, you could pull the trailer with diff. trucks.

We use them on our parkin' lot.

I guess I should have looked up the photo first. We use the teflon pad on the trailers. First time I have seen a fifth wheel like that.

That makes sense... most of the guys I know hauling ag stuff are using hoppers or dumps.

Do you know Wischmeier Trucking??

The live floors are very nice. I pulled one for awhile when I was hauling wood chips for a logging company back in the day!
