The decked drawers are awesome. I love them.
The fridge was just too high up for the Mrs. Tilt slides for the element fridge aren't in stock atm.
They'll be back in the build at some point.
Update to the suspension on the rig.
After 7 mos. and adding weight to the nose of the truck the Fox IPF 2.0 coilovers needed to go. They are undersprung and under dampened for a kitted out rig. Adding the winch and mounting plate dropped the nose 2" over the last couple of months.

I've always daily driven my rigs. Like most people, I can't really justify financially a second vehicle.
I feel that it helps keep me reasonable about my mod choices. It has also taught me not to cut corners or buy lower quality parts along the way. I fully have the expectation that my rig is...
