Question:
Will this system work on a 40foot Montana 5th wheel with dual axles? Worried about over all distance from sensors to front of pickup. Have 4 door long bed. Could the repeater be mounted at the front of the 5th wheel or rear of pickup.

According to the folks at ASA Electronics, due to the combined length of your fifth wheel and truck the # NCTP100 iN-Command TPMS system wouldn't be the best choice for your setup. The system would work perfectly on your truck tires, but performance would be inconsistent for your 5th wheel, especially for the back axle.
We do have a system that would work very well for you though. I'd recommend the # TST-507-RV-4-C from Truck Systems Technologies. This system provides 4 theft resistant sensors, a signal booster and an in-cab color monitor. These particular systems are routinely used on 53 foot long tractor trailers, so be assured it'll work great on your setup. TST recommends installing the signal booster in the front compartment, where the landing gear and batteries are usually located. This kit includes 4 sensors that will cover your 5th wheel, if your truck doesn't already have a tire pressure monitoring system, you can add 4 sensors for your truck as part # TST-507-RV-S4.
If you click the provided link, you can see a product description video for the TPMS I recommended.
