Re: PANDA BUILD ***VATONKA***
I really like the way your fridge will pull out on the slides in that direction. I'm sure they've got it figured out, but make sure there is accommodation for ventilation on that unit (not sure which end the compressor sits on).

It's going to be sweet!

Re: PANDA BUILD ***VATONKA***
Please spill the beans on the ARB fridge cover. I have a 63qt ARB, and I've considered the cover but not at the price that ARB wants.

Bronco,
The bag was a gift from my father, when I ordered my Arb he paid for my bag (180.00) on Sierra Expeditions.
Thanks
Buck

Stanw909,
Yes!! The rollover bed will be mounted on the passenger side of the van and will be removable to allow for more storage space when needed.

Thanks
Buck

Re: PANDA BUILD ***VATONKA***
The rollover bed will be high enough to allow my outdoor Drifta car back kitchen to be stored underneath



H-11.42 inch
L-35.43 inch
D-18.90 inch
I will be in Twisp WA later this month fishing the Methow and will pic it up then.
