Fifth wheel couplings and king pins are both subject to a certain amount of
wear, depending on their operating conditions. This can be discovered when
backlash towards the direction of motion is noticeable. Too much backlash
can lead to surging and can cause a threat to safety on the roads and
damage to the fifth wheel coupling, the mounting plates, and the chassis.
