Built a Packout slide to ride next to the fridge.

I just did this. Used the dometic fridge wiring kit and tapped into the yellow wire off the inverter. Comes on with the factory “115v” dash switch.

Picked up the SDHQ battery terminals. Spruced up the factory cables and got them installed.

I was able to grab one motor and a sienna switch out of a pick and pull for $8, was really bummed the other motor was damaged. I think that’s the only way to do it cheap.

The built in inverter wasn’t cutting it with the fridge. Decided to install the dometic fridge wiring kit to better charge the PLB40. I only wanted the PLB40 to charge with the ignition on so decided to wire it up with a relay triggered by the switch for the inverter outlet. I also decided...

Went out morel hunting to test the fridge and slide. Worked pretty well overall but had an issue with strapping the fridge to the slide. When strapped tightly enough to not slide, the strap spreads the fridge enough for the lid not to latch. I pulled the fridge off the slide to figure out a...

Got the Alucab slide in. Also decided to add a couple of the factory tie downs into the drawer top.

Much appreciated! I was looking into similar power stations and it just seemed the domestic was the most straight forward for what I was doing. Convenient that it fits right where it does! Thank you! Building it made me understand why some of the commercial ones cost what they do! It’s a lot...

I modified the battery with some amazon tie down loops and will hold it down with some 3/4 roller cam straps. Im still waiting on the Alucab tilting slide to ship for the fridge but hoping it all works out in the end. that's it for now, but will hopefully be able to update shortly! Thanks...

I was able to get out and enjoy a few trips before deciding I really want a fridge setup. I opted for the Dometic CFX3 35 and figured id run it off the PLB40. Figured it would charge alright off the factory inverter so wanted to build a mount for it near that location. Continued...

Got the drawer system installed and finished out with some yoga mat liners. I also was able to use some RIT dye on the the rubber slide latches to change them from yellow to orange. I installed a piece of angle aluminum on the leading edge to help protect it from damage and was good to go...

Wanting to get out and do some day trips mushroom hunting and enjoying the outdoors, I decided I needed to build some drawers. I ended up designing a two drawer system approximately 36"x41"x11" and began building it out of 3/4 plywood, the drawers were built around the popular 250 pound...

Next on the maintenance list was tires and brake pads/rotors. The brakes were in good shape but I prefer a ceramic pad and wanted to go with a geomet coated rotor to compliment the new wheels I chose to go with the new tires. I went with some machined RRW RR7-S wheels in 17x8.5+0. Wrapped them...

After moving to Idaho a couple years ago, I decided an SUV would be a more suitable vehicle for getting out than my previous 2007 Tundra regular cab. The tundra was a great truck but I was wanting somethings smaller and more comfortable to do some longer trips. Ive always been a fan of the Land...
