Fifth wheel system
February 28, 2011
| by: Truckers News Staff
Volvo Trucks offers a new fifth wheel option, which is installed directly into a truck’s frame. The smaller, lighter design preserves ride and drive quality and weighs 165 pounds, 100 pounds less than current standard-duty fifth wheel systems. It can handle a vertical load of 50,000 pounds and a drawbar pull of 150,000 pounds.
