    Good GOD, slavcha... You weren't kidding about it being tight... Knocked a nice chunk of meat off of my wrist wrestling it in there, but it's in... After losing one of the shelf bolts (#$%@#%$#^@#$). Always something...

    The pisser is that my other one likely would have fit this same way, turns out the Rival is actually 17.9 inches wide, at least the one that I bought.

    To be more specific, folks, you have to remove the edge trim, which means removing the black rubber step pad for the upper bunk (pops off and there are two Torx screws beneath it). Next, there are three more Torx screws securing the trim to the cabinet from the back (a royal SOB to see).

    Then, there are four more Torx screws securing the upper shelf (removal not required but recommended). Then, once you shoehorn the Titanic into Fisherman's Wharf, re-installation of the trim is the reverse of removal.

    Interesting. I wonder if our cabinets are different? My door rubs on the forward wall as well, but opens and closes with light pushing.

    Also you can cut the bottom part of the doghouse sticking into a cab there's a lot of space behind it it's very easy. You can unbiolt it there's only six bolts holding it and see it for yourself and if you don't like it you can bolted back if you'd like You image.jpg can just cut the bottom piece of it

    I don't have that option... brand-new company truck and I can't alter it. I got it in, I'm just thinking that not all of these cabinets are the same dimensions.

    That's where I used to keep mine. Now I have it in my closet. I also have a generator style apu instead of a pure sine wave inverter.
