IRONDALE, Ala. – Fifth wheel manufacturer Fontaine International has created a new company dedicated to providing parts and support for the aftermarket.

Fontaine Parts Connection will provide fleets, dealers and distributors with Fontaine parts, fifth wheel maintenance training, tools and support for the Fontaine International line of fifth wheels, the company has announced.

Roger Crawford has been appointed president of the new company while Britt Caple has been named director of sales and marketing.

“Forming an entirely new company enables us to focus resources on meeting the needs of our aftermarket customers,” Crawford explained. “Fontaine fifth wheels are requested on more new production Class 8 trucks in North America than any other brand, which means that there’s a large aftermarket parts market out there. For quality, reliability and longevity, we recommend installing only genuine Fontaine parts when replacing or rebuilding a Fontaine fifth wheel.”

More information about the new company is available at www.fifthwheel.com or by calling 800-874-9780.
