[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by edbenton</i> <br /><br />On teh roadrailer reefers the bar that joins the trailers is 3 ft longer than normal to allow for the reefer unit but inorder to keep the same bar form going into the back of teh truck and putting a hole in the back of said truck the kingpin is only 24 inches from the nose of the actual trailer still makes it fun to hook on to you have to make sure your 5th wheel all the way back to make sure you can hook onto it I used to pull roadrailers every now and then and hated the reefers were the biggest pain in the[censored][censored] I ever had to pull <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />OK,...thanks... <br /> <br />Not to appear ungratefull, but when you say "bar" I have no idea what you are talking about, but get a mental picture of a third component (in addition to the bogey and the trailer/king pin) <br /> <br />I always just figured the bogeys had a 5th wheel on them, where does the "bar" fit into the equation?
