5th wheel, replace or rebuild?
in Odds and Ends
Posted
Work at saf Holland, woodstock ontario . Jost wheels are simpler to operate and maintain. Parts wise ? Some of their parts are of questionable quality. I am certified 5th wheel builder and we get jost wheels in our facility and build most of the paccar products . We use jost cause it's cheaper, installed on sliders and brackets made by us . Its assembled in our facility . I wont be really concerned too much about realabilty , they are realable , the cast its self is lighter then the saf Holland cast we machine , but as I said , the only reasoun we use jost wheels is the price .
