[edit] King pin on semi-trailer truck

This should probably be rectified with the "king pin" definition for semi-trailer trucks, and the redirect for fifth wheel. FWIW, I have yet to determine exactly if that meaning uses two words or one. ENeville 16:22, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rename page?

I'm trying to find consensus for renaming "(mechanics)" pages, where "mechanics" refers to machinery, mechanisms, mechanical devices or mechanical engineering, rather than (e.g. classical) mechanics in physics and applied math. I would like to rename this page to "Kingpin (mechanism)" or "Kingpin (mechanical device)". Any preferences or objections? Geometry guy 20:43, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
