Jost Werke SE (proper spelling: JOST Werke SE) is a manufacturer of systems for commercial vehicles based in Neu-Isenburg, Germany. [1] Jost Werke is a leading international manufacturer and supplier for the trucking industry. The company focuses on the manufacture of safety-related systems for tractors, semi-trailers and trailers.
A wheel would be placed on the rear frame section of the truck, which at the time had only four wheels, making the additional wheel the "fifth wheel". The trailer needed to be raised so that the trailer's pin would be able to drop into the central hole of the fifth wheel.

The ballast box is a metal box installed on the rear chassis of the tractor instead of the fifth wheel coupling. Earlier heavy haulers unmounted the fifth wheel and used merely a piece or two of heavy rocks , stones or concrete blocks which weighted enough to avoid wheel spin, [ 4 ] later builders and heavy haulers developed metal boxes of ...
