I just bought an ARB tent and rack, about to install on my 96 FZJ80 with ARB roof rack mounts.

Question I have is it better to open the tent on the side vs rear. I did purchase the ARB annex and plan to have a fridge in the back with some other items
 
Seems like most folks are doing it on the side.
Can you open the hatch with the tent open and annex on if it's facing back? Ladder?

Thanks for responding and yes the arb mounts make the rack sit higher so tailgate can open completely.

Picture below of the rack and tent (not mine).

Reason I’m thinking for the rear is easy access to items in the tailgate
