Spanish term or phrase: aro giratorio
This is information that needs to be provided for auto makers to get a Model Configuration License. It is from Argentina. This section relates to trailers. Here's the sentence: Distancia entre ejes, además la distancia del plano frontal al perno de enganche o aro giratorio y la distancia entre éstos y el primer eje trasero. I know I'm only supposed to ask one term at a time, but there are 3 in here I'm not positive about, though I think "tow pin" is probably ok.

This is what I have so far: ...distance from the front plane? to the tow pin or revolving ring? and the distance between these and the first rear axle.

Thanks a lot!

yoke
Explanation:
This is where the king pin (perno de enganche), attached to the trailer, is held.
Measurements are usually taken from a plane surface or a point , which the kingpin/yoke combination represents.
