Check the hopper pages on Facebook. A Tempte dealer is running a special on them with installation. Sorry, don't remember who it was. I saw it on Midwest Hoppers, Southeast Hoppers, or hopper bottom mafia. I've had:

Thunder 7000 Power Tarp Series

on my last 2 hoppers and never had an issue with them. I wouldn't have a hopper without one, however I am a little lazy by nature!

How did they do the door end? I've got a swing door on my western and would love an electric tarp.

I used a bungie cord on the back of my hopper with freight doors. It worked real well.

Depends on the trailer you have, Timpte has the Thunder 7000 tarp system. Wilson has there own, not sure of the name of it. I have the Thunder 7000 on my 2 year old Timpte, and so far no problems. Timpte is running a promotion for $3,025 kit+installation not including power cord.

i have a three way gat on my elec tarp they put a remove end cap on it works dam good

I have a Shurco 4500 series hd on my hopper and love it! Be sure to get a system with a remote as that's the easiest way to reprogram the end stops if you need to do that.

i got one from tarps america they are in apollo pa. the last one lasted over 8 years. takes about 5 hrs to get it on

We have 16 hoppers and 3 dump trailers all with Shurco tarps. These all haul between 15 and 20 loads a week. We have had very little problems. Be careful when opening if there is snow or ice on them. You can roll them off the trailer. We have reminder training every fall not to use the remote when covered with snow or ice. We think the tarps last longer sense going with electric roll tarps.
