Default Re: ScaleART - Assembling a MAN TGX/XL 6x6 tractor & Trailer

Took fifth wheel apart to redo the servo and to add some silicon grease to the parts. Took some pictures I missed when assembling first time.

Here the top before the stainless steel glide plates are in place. These are the screws that tie it to the ground plate.



Mechanism in "lock" position



Mechanism in open position. When backing into the trailer, the kingpin will close the lock.



Next repositioning the servo support





By moving it to the back the servo horn clears the plate.



The support holds the servo level.
