Key Features & Benefits

JSK37U  Series

Replaceable Cushion Ring

A replaceable cushion ring reduces the lifetime cost of ownership. JOST parts across product lines ensure affordable, consistent product availability.

JOST Locking Mechanism

JOST’s signature 3-point locking system features three locks with just four moving parts to ensure ultimate safety & simplicity.

Anti-High Coupling Lugs

Innovative anti-high coupling lugs prevent drivers from high coupling by either guiding the kingpin into the jaws or pushing it up and over. This allows for a clear indication when the fifth wheel is properly coupled.
