To keep room in the back on overnighters +, I got the idea from Stepmurr and welded up a metal frame for the new fridge. Opened up the rear for more camping gear! Bolts right into the existing bolt holes, has channel to hold the fridge in, and held in place with hooked turnbuckles. These mount to the HD metal handles on one end and welded eyelets on the other. welded on the tabs today and painted it up.
The fridge doesnt move and is very secure. I faced it to the outside so a) the plug in is only inches to the outlet plug in. b) the in and out fridge vents are facing the front and front side where they wont be blocked by gear in the rear. c) It opens away from me so I wont be tempted .
Clearing the rear fenderwell, the front tcase shift lever in 4WD - good to go!
Will you sleeping on top of it like Stepmurr?
Over 4th of July I was getting some pretty high temps from my Scanguage, then on Monday I got home on so the coolant pouring out for under my engine 
. Replaced the PHH, which took much longer then it should have, but since it has been so hot and I could only work on it in the evening I finally got it replaced and put in a new thermostat since I already had the coolant drained.

That's where my cat rode!rubber traction mat on top?
Nice work on your mounting bracket - can you reverse the lid so you can access the fridge while you drive?

I like the cat bed on the dash! I think your cat has more dog in him than my dog
Then can you flip it back to access it from the campsite without crawling over your driver's seat
?
Maybe mount the hinges on the short side? Then you can access it from either.
You need a rotating platform
LCP may have the rotating mechanism you need. I saw it in his garage before.

In the middle of the PUMA mounts not a lot of time to address this but....
Just a thought to eliminate the hinge concern. Adding a hose to the tap with a bit valve would avoid spills.

I'd be very interested!
Got bored working on projects at the house in Flag, so I drove out to Anderson Mesa. Got caught in a rainstorm and managed to pack the wheel wells full of what must have been clay. I had a heck of a time at the carwash getting it out.
