    Wrong section. And have you tried connecting them using the node grabber?

    You have to add a new fifth wheel... (Copy the fifthwheel.jbeam from the semi.zip and copy it to a new folder and change the copuler strenght on one of the nodes in the file. Then place the folder that you've created like you'd do with making any other mod).
    I'd make it for you as I have a file like that ready on my PC, but I'm currently in school.
