For a complete view system, I will steer you away from a wireless system. Aluminum is rough on interference with a wireless system and you stated you want a clear view.
I recommend the # RVS-6137Q to allow you 4 camera views without toggling channels. I recommend getting the two side cameras # RVS-775R and # RVS-775L that will give you 9 infrared illuminators and 120-degree viewing angle. These cameras come with 33 feet of cable each. I also recommend gettiing the Rear View Safety Trailer Tow Quick Connect/Disconnect Kit - 3 Camera Set Up # RVS-2133 so you can have a camera on your truck and the two sides and rear on your trailer.
For the rear cameras, you may want a surface mount rear camera like # RVS-611-IR that will give you 170-degree viewing with up to 30 feet of night vision. There is also a heated option with night vision # RVS-812N with 120-degree view and 65 foot cable. The standard rear camera with night vision is # RVS-771. I know there are a lot of camera options and any will work with your system, but all of them are really good quality, so it is a preference choice for your custom application.
