Hopefully when you say the bottom radiator hose is cold it isn't actually cold, its just cooler than the inlet hose?
You must have some circulation going on as the radiator is getting hot enough to kick the fan on, presumably you are using the standard fan switch (located in the passenger side of the rad)?
Just a thought, maybe there is someone else out there who knows better?
I like the trailer by the way, just a pity I can't squeeze one like it down the side of my house...
