Product Description
The Holland RK-06973-1 is a genuine SAF-Holland fifth wheel mounting bracket pin and cushion replacement kit designed for compatible heavy-duty commercial truck fifth wheel assemblies. This kit provides the replacement mounting pins, rubber cushions, and retaining hardware needed to service the connection between the fifth wheel top plate and mounting brackets.
The heavy-duty steel bracket pins secure the fifth wheel top plate to its mounting brackets, while the rubber cushions help absorb shock and vibration and allow proper articulation during normal tractor-trailer operation.
Over time, mounting pins and rubber cushions can become worn or damaged, contributing to excessive fifth wheel movement and increased wear. Replacing these components helps maintain proper mounting support and dependable fifth wheel operation.
The RK-06973-1 is designed for compatible Holland traditional sliding and stationary mounting configurations, including select FW8, FW16, FW17, FW31, FW33, FW35, FW83, FWS1, FWS2, and FWAL fifth wheel models.
