Gee Barney, you say you are not an engineer nor do you presently tow a 5th wheel, I thought I saw you at a Holiday Inn. I thought most folks that posted on RV.NET were experts. :B I am sure an expert will say you are incorrect.
I believe there is a cause for chucking, probably maybe several contributing factors. If they can be identified, then those factors might be eliminated. Some of them could be at a major cost. First thing is to identify the potential causes.
