I realize that this topic is several years old! I only just now discovered it! I am assuming this topic is disc brakes on a fifth wheel. Personally I don’t see the advantage! I tow with a Ford F250 diesel. I had slotted and drilled (bored) discs replacing the OEM discs! I have done this for all my drive vehicles over the last 15 or 20 years! This makes a huge difference! I have not had any issues with the trailer stopping! I do recommend the Moryde suspension, but have not found the wet bolts are any improvement!

I’m not sure why this question is important. Curiosity? Potential members feeling accepted? Gillette will be our third FMCA rally in a fifth wheel. The rallys give us a destination and we use that for an exploration trip! (roadtrppers.com). There are several chapters that try to create the illusion that pull behinds are not up to FMCA standards! (of course this was once the case). I prefer to see FMCA defined by the first word; Family!

May I suggest, along the same lines, for fue savings is GasBuddy The App. You can set it to find only Diesel or to find Gasohol which they are still calling gasoline. They also have a "pay with Gasbuddy" that I have not tried. You have to allow them access to your bank account. Similar to some of the other pay by phone apps. This gives you additional savings. Like you , I have traveled side roads to get to cheaper fuel, but I use Gasbuddy to direct me, and to give me choices. While you are waiting for the pump to finish emptying your wallet, you can add your own price update or verification to Gasbudy. The more we all use it, the better it becomes.
