Assuming you are going with welded aluminum, pass on the McClain. They come out of the factory great, but they don't wear well over time from what I have seen.
Also be certain to check with Evolution Trailers. NASCAT has had a couple built for his NorTechs, and they do a fair number for that company.

There are pics on NASCAT's build threads, and I also put a post up in the Truck/Trailer forum some time back asking for info.

If I was buying new, I'd consider Myco, Manning, & Evolution in no particular order.

A big THANK YOU to Mark Bonafide, Rod Ashemore and all the folks at Evolution Trailer Technologies. I thought my last trailer was nice but they have once again raised the bar.
Many neat features like the ramp skids, power tongue jack, toolbox w/ both interior and exterior courtesy lighting not to mention the way they package it all. Very clean and neat workmanship. The brake controller is nicely tucked away in the C- Channel, the battery for the tongue jack as well as a master power switch are all packaged neatly inside the locking toolbox.
I know the industry recognizes a certain welded aluminum trailer manufacturer as the std but one would be foolish not to take a look at what Evolution Trailer Technologies offers. Not just from a pricing standpoint but value, quality, fit, finish, ability to customize and most importantly Customer Service!!
