    FS: PullRite 16K Super Glide 5th wheel hitch

    This is my FIL's hitch off of his 05 F-350. Like new, only a little dusty from sitting. It's only been used a couple times because they sold the 5'th & got a 42' Coach to travel in.

    A/C Question

    I have an 88 E- 350 15 pass. I charged the system & the front blew cold for a few days but got hot again. I figure there's a leak some where. the back never got cold but I think the heater line valve is probably bad so it was fighting against the A/C & won. I was going to clamp the heat lines...
