The fifth wheel plate on my western star doesn't slide to the rear far enough, to hook up to my roll back trailer. The roll back trailer has a really short fifth wheel pin to neck distance, and it is fine on my little international truck, but I'd like to be able to hook the western star up to it.
Easier to go to the junkyard and come up with some more slider rail, and add on to my existing track, or unbolt my whole assembly and move it back? It would need to go back around another 6- 8" or so. I'm just trying to decide which would be better/easier.
I don't slide mine all the way forward with my RGN, so I do have enough rail to unbolt it, and slide it all back.
