Eyelet coupling

Show the answer

Eyelet couplingThis was the right answer

Check the drawbar eye and pin connection for security, wear and damage. Use the actual manufacturer’s limits and maintenance instructions. A fifth-wheel kingpin is a different coupling; do not assume all drawbar eyes use one heavy-grease procedure.
