Received September 2, 2008 Jack, Attached are some photos of our Airtabs that we installed to our 2003 Peterbilt and 2008 Wabash trailer. These are amazing. They have improved my fuel mileage by 4/10 of a mile. Not only have they helped with fuel mileage they have helped with the handling of the truck and trailer in windy conditions. I am no longer blown all over the road, it holds steady and you don't even feel that the wind is blowing. I would recommend them on that factor alone.
Thank you

Reefer Challenges and Solutions

Reefers with corrugated sides can present a challenge for fitting Airtabs. The best solution is to mount the Airtabs on the rear trailer door frame if it is wide enough to accomodate the product as shown in the picture below.

If the bulkhead is not wide enough, two Airtabs fit perfectly in the wide section of the trailer corrugations

To fit an Airtab into the narrow corrugation space, the side edges must be trimmed with hand shears. Be careful not to trim into the air-tight cavity of the Airtab as moisture could enter here. If this happens, the hole can be re sealed with white silicon.
