I do not do a pull test but do check the jaws on my Reese classic. I also have one of those Butch's Services bars that slides in behind the king pin.
You went ,and done it now, you know full well the only ones that don't have to do a pull test is the B&W crowd, with their FOOLPROOF hitch . :B
Yep, they're foolproof, but NOT idiot proof, as I can attest.

You can't fix stupid, and as long as people use these hitches, IMO they should give themselves every chance to prevent a mistake . Granted some should not be towing these big heavy fifth wheels, and for sure not be hearing a visual test is all thats needed.
