Expert Reply:
There is no extension for a fifth wheel hitch handle to let you access it from a distance. The best solution for you would be to use something like the Wheel Step # PT68ZR, assuming your flatbed does not jut out over the tires too significantly. Otherwise, a simple step stool such as # TE97FR is your best option.
