vision386 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I agree with the Holland I.D.,but given the age of the truck could also be a Fontaine................................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

BAD DOG Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 No that's a Holland. Fountain wheels are stamped steel. I've never seen a casted steel Fontaine wheel.

BAD DOG Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I like the Fontaine No Slack wheels also I've had good luck with them. Didn't know they went to cast I seen new ones the heavy duty wheels at Traction truck parts just a few months back and they were still stamped ones maybe old stock or they make both ways.

BAD DOG Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I know one thing Fontaine is more expensive priced a air cylinder for the slider on my Superliner and it was $300 a bit more money than if it were a Holland.

felicello122 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I really like the newer Jost heads, they are performing well, I installed replacement heads on the whole fleet, and it doesn't matter what type slider you have, holland or Fontaine, just tell the dealer what type you have!

r686st Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I just bought a new Jost Friday with their built in blocking system. I haven't pulled with it yet but the blocking design is very creative. They tell me this fifth wheel style is the most cutting edge thing on the market today. I bought mine with the top plate, slide and frame. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34370-fifth-wheel-type/#findComment-228717 Share on other sites More sharing options...
