r686st Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I purchased a Jost that has the blocking system made into it for $1800 this past spring. I'm very happy with it so far and I pull frameless dump trailers, lowboy and a float. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38092-5th-wheel/#findComment-270312 Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterwelder Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I've got Fontaine on my tractor, no complaints. Lowboy and tank work. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38092-5th-wheel/#findComment-270382 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsb502 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Been partial to Fontaine for a lonmg time, thats all Ive had but I hear good things about holland too. I like the ease of rebuild on a Fontaine, the jaw system is self tighteneing too, then just back the nut out on the front and give it a little more when it gets sloppy.
