Reefer/Van Dimension Question

[up9018]

Since average 1:1 5th wheel height is around 47/48", or about 3-1/2" in scale, and our Tamiya trucks 5th wheel measures out at about 4", what do you reefer/van trailer builders do to compensate for the approximately 1/2" difference? Do you maintain sidewall height, or overall trailer height? Or do you split the difference?

Thanks,
Chris

Right or wrong, I just eyeballed the trailer I'm building. It came out a hair under 3 3/4".
