​The fifth wheel is a towable that connects to the tow truck directly above the rear axle by way of a special fifth wheel hitch. This causes several feet of the connected trailer to hang over the tow truck, placing about 15 to 25% of the trailer’s weight on the rear axle of the truck.
Commercial semi trucks and trailers use this hitch configuration.
