Also, every chance you get do a safety check of your 5th wheel hitch to make sure that the breakaway cable is prorperly connected and look at all of the hitches pins, etc. I once had a Husky two piece hitch. The top saddle pivits side to side and this was held in place to the base of the hitch by a big pin. The pin has a safety pin in one end so the pin cannot slide out. In doing my walk around I noticed a safety pin laying in the bed of the truck. That didn't seem right! It took a bit of looking to discover where it came from and to notice that the big pin that holds the saddle on was just about to fall out. Another few miles and I would have lost everything!!!
