Among its long list of towing services, Mighty Towing offers fifth wheel towing services in the Huntington Beach, CA area.
The name, “fifth wheel”, can be a little confusing, because besides its name, there is absolutely nothing to do with a fifth wheel when you take a closer look at the service.
Fifth wheel towing services are offered to vehicles above 4 tons or of abnormal sizes, such as oversized trailer trucks, vans, caravans, and recreational vehicles.
So, what exactly is fifth wheel towing and why is it called that?
To put it simply, as mentioned above, fifth wheel towing is towing of heavy vehicles weighing over 4 tons. So, why the name? Well, it is left over from the time when people would ride in horse drawn carriages. Back then the carriages had a fifth wheel, which was horizontal and allowed the front axel to rotate.
Today, a U-shaped hitch is used, it sits in the bed of a pickup truck and it is robust enough to tow extremely heavy weights. The hitch is called a fifth wheel hitch, and it is connected via the trailer’s king pin.
