  Fifth wheel from Jost International available on new Kenworth trucks
By Lorna Lindquist

The Kenworth Truck Company now offers selected Jost International fifth wheels as published options on new Kenworth trucks, not just as aftermarket additions.

According to Rich Carroll, Jost International vice president of sales and marketing, the selling points for the fifth wheel include a cushion ring that protects the wheel's throat during coupling and reduces friction between the top plate and trailer king pin,an easy to pull release bar and a 30-minute rebuild time that can be done without removing the wheel from the truck.
