swbouton Junior Member Jun 26, 2016 #1 I need to separate the head from the base of my fifth-wheel hitch. The problem is that I can't turn the linchpin in order to be able to remove it. It is currently soaking in WD-40. Any ideas? Attachments Drawtite hitch.jpg 114.2 KB · Views: 1 Drawtite pin.jpg 222.4 KB · Views: 1 drawtite_label.jpg 397.7 KB · Views: 1
