    Hey all, I have been off the road a while due to some surgery. I am trying to knock out my to do list. One is that one side of the cabinet that holds the refrigerator behind the driver has come loose on the right side from the wall of the cab and of course bounces against the wall on rough roads. It looks like I will have to remove the frig to gain access to the brackets. I have not seen an easy way to do this as yet so I thought I'd see what some of you guys had to offer for information. It will be a good chance to clean the coils etc on the fridge while it's out. Thanks, Jim

    You pull the fridge by lifting it up and then bringing it out. It has brackets that it drops into fastened to the cabinet.

    Hey and thanks.... that's just way to simple :) I appreciate it. I didn't think to lift on it... assumed there were brackets. Will give it a try when I go back to the project. Have a good day and thanks for the response, Jim

    No problem Jim.
    I asked a tech at a WS dealer how to remove mine....he didn't know! I was fiddling with the SOB one time to get it out and clean the coils etc, and just lifted it up! The look on my face must have been priceless...lol
    Have a great one
