12v Fridge

[GordoSmasho]

So i got this fridge about three months ago. Took it on one run through the rubicon. Its just a bit to big for the plans i have. Its practiacly brand new. So i need to sell it and recoup some money towards a smaller unit. It is 120v or 12v. Comes with both cables. It is very efficient. I left it running in wilbur for four days after i got back from the run with food in it. Still had plenty of juice to start it up. It made a huge difference not having to deal with ice.

This is the one im selling. I can get pics if desired but its just like the pictures.

I paid 550 with shipping. So its yours for $450.

did you just wire it straight to the battery with a inline fuse?

 

[GordoSmasho]

I put it on a breaker to a locking outlet but you can certainly wire it direct. I wanted to be able to turn it off if i wanted with the breaker.

Can you post a picture of it mounted in your Jeep? I'd like to see how big it truly is.

 

[GordoSmasho]

Dont have a pic of it in the jeep. But it took up 2/3of the back seat. It will easily fit in the cargo compartment sideways. I just had the spare back there in wilbur. If the back seat is where you want it ill give you the mounting platform i made for it.

 

[NorCalChris]

I don't have a back seat anymore. Storage area now. Did you have a seat or no?

 

[GordoSmasho]

I pulled the rear seat bottom and made a plywood base that bolted in. Then made a cradel for it and strapped it down.

Interesting. Sounds exactly like what I'm doing. Let me think about the fridge. It wasn't something directly on my to buy list

 

[GordoSmasho]

Quit making this thing so tempting....

This is almost the same dimensions as my large ice chest and if I'm not mistaken, it should squeeze behind the back seat in the cargo area in line with the jeep... or do you have to turn it sideways in order to close the hatch?

Not 100% sure. Both my jeeps are torn apart right now. Measure it out and see. Ill try to take some measurements tonight if not.

Its so tempting because its so good.

 

[GordoSmasho]

Just measured. Back of seat to trim on the hatch is 29.5". Fridge measures 28.5" so yes it fits. I was thinking about doing the seat latch mod to get a bit more room.

So this takes up the entire rear cargo area?
