Un-Hitching a 5th Wheel
I'm new at this. Only did it one time and that was with assistance. The following is according to my best recollection. All suggestions will be appreciated 1). Lower tailgate ...

#1, remove tailgate before you hitch up. Leave it at home.
#2, Probably a good practice to lower the legs a bit. I do not really do this unless I have a leveling issue.
#5, I prefer to have some weight on the hitch. But yes remove most of the weight.
#6, I leave the rear stabilizers retracted until all is unhitched, level and done.
#7, chock the tires... this is #1 for me. But make sure you are level side to side first.
#10 & #11, I disconnect these before I pull the release lever.
#13, yea I want one of those. Ignore my leveling comments above.
