Did we ever find out definitively if the ARB 50 can fit on the drivers side? I’m about to pull the trigger on this setup, but I 100% want the fridge on the drivers side.

mine took some “adjustments” And it barely fits. Need to pull fridge to fold seats safely. I had to shim under rear seat brackets to get the room. I thought about pulling the seat cover off and using a heat gun to mold a slit for the fridge. For me it’s too tight to say 100%. You should call AAL, they are really guys and will help.

I put my order in 7 weeks ago. Supposedly it ships soon. l and I’m using the ARB 50. I’ll post once it arrives. They told me you just need to install on the passenger side.

If you break off the red release tabs it would fit on the driver side...haha

Just picked it up from install yesterday. Everything exceeded my expectations. Only two complaints. It took 7 weeks to get my stuff and they estimate 2-3 weeks and the installers said the hardware wasn’t right. But now that it’s here I wouldn’t do any thing different. It’s all built so well.

Looks amazing, but I guess this means the 50 doesn’t fit on the drivers side?

We didn’t even try. This is what AAL said to do. My installers also didn’t plug the fridge into the remote line. They put a separate 12v plug near the subwoofer. Which I’m happy with since it gives me an additional 12v plug in back.

Yeah. The ARB plug is definitely the way to go. System looks amazing! Enjoy it! Sounds like it might not be the route I go because fridge on the drivers side is a must. I have the Outback Adventure Products Trailgater Table and want to be able to have it open and use the fridge at the same time.

the only issue I can think of running it on the passenger side is if you use a tailgate table. Otherwise it’s fine I would think.

No doubt. I pull a overland trailer so I’m not cooking out of my Jeep. You could probably still do it but just have to be really organized about removing everyone for cooking at once

Thats the same configuration mine is in currently. One thing I have noticed compared to when the fridge was on the driver side is that there is not alot of space between the left side of fridge (compressor side) and the drawer causing the fridge to not run as efficient I believe. I have a dual battery setup and usually leave it in all the time but I noticed the power consumption was high after moving to the passenger side....

For now I removed the slider and install fridge when needed, I don't have the storage shelf (yet). going to try and move to driver side using the seat lean method this weekend for an upcoming trip. If this doesn't work maybe break off the red release tabs or go with the DPG fridge slide.

That is my issue. I don't want to have to close the tailgate table every time I want a beer. I have the Vector Off Road Highland platform so I wouldn't be able to open the fridge unless it was slid out. I'm wondering if the Dometic CFX3 45 would fit. It has less height and depth then the ARB 50. My goal is to get the biggest fridge possible on the drivers side on a slide.
