You might have a point there Rev. But, conditions would have to be perfect for the smell to enter the trailer. But then again you don't use the same trailer everyday either. So with that said just ignore everything I just wrote

Well then test it to see if the smell enters the trailer, use a smoke bomb or
stink bomb. If it enters, crawl under there and seal it up, problem solved until you hook to another trailer. All the landstar trailers I see seem to be pretty new looking. You might not even have a problem with smell.

Whats up with Landstars trailers? are they in bad shape?
When I drove for Stevens, all the trucks had weedburners and we all pulled reefers, there was never a problem with fumes getting into the trailers. Just screw it and run the exhaust up to the front of the truck and have it exit in the front. How much fumes are there?? |
