A rub rail coupled to a side rail including a first top notch and a first bottom notch, the rub rail including: a top chamfer; a top horizontal face diagonally connected to the top chamfer; a second top notch extending out of the top horizontal face; a side vertical face diagonally connected to the top chamfer; a bottom chamfer; a bottom horizontal face diagonally connected to the bottom chamfer; a second bottom notch extending out of the bottom horizontal face; wherein the second top notch couples to the first top notch, and wherein the second bottom notch couples to the first bottom notch.

The present invention relates to a ramp gate trailer bed extension device capable of expanding the overall length of a trailer bed for transporting larger cargo. The device is designed as a mechanical device and includes two independent flat iron or telescoping rods, each rod is attached to the trailer and the ramp for enabling up and down movement of the gate. In one embodiment, the ramp becomes substantially horizontal and selectively coplanar with trailer bed to expand the overall trailer length to increase cargo carrying capacity to carry longer items. In other embodiments, the ramp is positioned at a 45-degree angle relative to the trailer bed for offering enhanced aerodynamics for reducing drag on the trailer and increasing fuel economy. Each rod has a clip for secured attachment and offers complete utilization of the ramp for carrying long cargo items.

In an illustrative embodiment, a panel assembly for partitioning a trailer cargo space is provided including a first insulated panel and a second insulated panel, each insulated panel including a first side vertical edge having a connecting edge, and a second side vertical edge having a connecting edge. One of the insulated panels includes one or more spaced apart vertical cut lines proximate the first side vertical edge, where, when a given cut line is cleaved, the cleaved cut line is configured to form a new second side vertical edge having a connecting edge. A first mating extrusion may secure with a second side vertical edge of the first insulated panel, and a second mating extrusion may secure with a first side vertical edge of the second insulated panel where, upon mating the first and second mating extrusions, an insulated wall is formed.

A weight distribution system used with a hitch on a vehicle and a trailer, the weight distribution system comprising a moment bar with a forward end attached to the hitch so as to pivot about a generally vertical axis, the moment bar extending rearwardly along a center longitudinal plane of the trailer toward a rearward portion, the moment bar configured to exert a forward moment on the vehicle in response to an upward force on the rearward portion; a bracket attached to a trailer frame element, wherein the bracket is above the first rearward portion and further from the center longitudinal plane of the trailer than the rearward portion; and a tension member combined with a tension mechanism so as to increase and decrease a tensile force between the bracket and the rearward portion, to thereby increase and decrease the upward force on the rearward portion whereby sway of the trailer is reduced by biasing the system back to the centerline when the vehicle and trailer are out of alignment is disclosed.

The trailer includes an exterior drainage system to prevent unwanted stains or blemishes caused by precipitation on the trailer. The trailer includes a main body that has an exterior wall with a first end and an opposing second end. The trailer also includes a bulkhead provided proximate the first end of the main body. The trailer also includes at least one interior chamber defined by the main body and adapted to carry a load. The trailer also includes a drainage system provided on the trailer. The drainage system includes a drainage portion extending outwardly beyond the first end of the exterior wall, said drainage portion being adapted to direct precipitation away from the bulkhead and towards a ground surface over which the trailer travels.
