    5th wheel to lunette conversion for m35a2 tow

    There is a second set of bolt holes that will raise pin plate 2 inches. Not enough to mount 5th wheel head to bed. I am going to look at tommorow to see if I can do hay hauler mod to it.

    5th wheel to lunette conversion for m35a2 tow

    A few more details. Trailer weight 15,000 pounds with max tong weight of 3,750 pounds. Currently 13 ft high leaving 6 inches to go up. Lunette ring will take weight and so will deuce. Keep the ideas coming I need all the help I can get.

    Dolly would also work. Not sure of the rules to use on road.

    5th wheel to lunette conversion for m35a2 tow

    I like that but still to high. My bed is 10 inches higher than the 5 th wheel pin plate. It is almost level with pintle hitch. I can make up this difference with adapter fabrication.

    5th wheel to lunette conversion for m35a2 tow

    I have a m35a2 and 35 ft 5th wheel trailer. The deuce is to high for the 5 th wheel pin. I don't want to remove bed. Has anyone thought or converted a 5th wheel trailer to lunette ring. I know about the banging from the hitch but I can't justify a new truck. Any thoughts?
