Lot of difference between pin weight of a 5er and pin weight of a gooseneck construction or implement trailer. The 5er carries a lot of weight over the elevated front section and some of that nearly directly over the pin. The gooseneck construction/implement trailer carries its weight behind the elevated front section. So the pin weight percentage of total weight is considerably different.
