    If money is not a factor go high end aluminum, Mac Reitnouer or East, 3 nail strips (one down the middle) sliding winches on both sides, rope hooks, stake pockets on front of trailer

    Some ask aluminum trailers are lighter than the combos, but also about twenty grand more. If it was me, the only way I could justify the extra cost is if I either had, or was planning on buying, a heavy truck. Stretched w9 or a big house for example. As for the tarp systems, they are so awesome, eli has 8 of them sitting he will be happy to sell or rent you. Something tells me if he parked most of his and bought new flats with no tarp system, it might not be easy keeping them loaded with good paying freight.

    A thermo king mechanic told me, the tri pac can get an air lock when the water line is taken off. That's what yours sounds like

    Did you turn the value back on ? And if so did you do it before or after you filled the truck with antifreeze. If after you may still be low on coolant
