“Our new 4000AE Drop Deck incorporates the advanced technology that is found in our 4000AE combo flatbed, delivering the long-term benefits of both steel and aluminum,” said Brett Olsen, Utility marketing manager. “A customer will discover that it weighs less than some all-aluminum trailers, yet it’s available at a more sensible combo-trailer price.”
Designed to haul heavy or awkward loads, the 4000AE Drop Deck features a combination of 3- and 4-inch aluminum crossmembers. It comes standard with a 39,000-pound coil haul package with a 5-foot span of 4 inches tapered to 3-inch aluminum crossmembers on 8-inch centerlines.
The 4000AE Drop Deck also features the ConMet aluminum hub system and delivers an additional 541 pounds of weight savings compared to the previous design.
