    Hello everyone !

    Now updated to version 0.8.1 (For real now !)
    0.8.1 Changes:
    -Fix the engine config who cause fatal error since new game 0.8 update.
    -Fix the very high performance radiator who was not working properly since game update.

    0.8 Changes:
    -New single cab config
    -New fifthwheel moved forward to benefit from the single cab clearance.
    -The max tow rear suspension is now more firm.
    -Fix the rear differential who didn`t spawn anymore due to renamed part from game update 0.7

    This mod add an fifth wheel to the back of the D-series so you can attach dry van trailer or other trailer who needs the T-series before.
    Back up and press L to attach heavy trailer.


    The added parts:
    -Fifth wheel tow hitch
    -7.0L V8 engine (added power to be able to tow more easily heavy stuff)
    -Very high performance radiator (So the engine doesn't overheat on first pull)
    -Stiffer rear Leaf Spring
    -Rear bed frame reinforcement
    -Two new Tow max configuration of the d-series

    Tips:
    If you build your own truck, I advise you to remove the bed. Otherwise it will touch the dry van. (I may add a little taller one soon).
    If you use the regular d-series with the small frame and heavy duty suspension, enjoy bending the rear frame hehe.

    Installation:
    Regular mod installation. So you just need to put the .zip folder in your beamNG.drive mod folder in your Documents.

    This is the beta version of the mod, so weard things can happen :p

    Also English isn't my first language so spelling mistakes is an mod feature.

    Reports bugs and enjoy !

    Thanks to beamNG team for the reused stock d-series components.

    Doesn't work anymore, the 5th wheel hitch goes straight through the truck and onto the floor. Hasn't been updated in 3 years

    Trailers are broken, overall its amazing but I think there needs to be a Turbo charger option because almost all diesel engines have one to increase engine power.

    The mod is great, the only thing is the frame isnt quite strong enough yet (which was in the roadmap of the mod) so excited for the rear frame toughening!
