    Finally got mine installed. One thing that semi-concerned me was,
    Where I chose to mount fridge. It was covering access to jack and lug wrench in case of flat tire.
    Aaaaand of course within 2 hours of mounting fridge I got a flat tire. WTF.

    Hey guys/gals. I just saw the comments about us not answering questions or anything in here. That's accurate, but not intentional!

    For some reason we do not get the updates on posts that we thought we had all set up! I have tried to fix it, but if you ever post to us, and I do not reply- please hit me up directly on my email here at the office. marketing@truckfridge.com

    My name is Sean and I sit at a computer all day. So it's frustrating I was not getting or seeing anything.

    I can attest to setting up notifications and not getting them as well.
    I can also attest to the TOP NOTCH customer service that I received from @TruckFridge !!

    I was the one who set up the original GB on the Indel-B fridges almost a year ago. Since then I've taken the fridge along countless off-road trips and it has been solid every time. The only issue I had was a cracked power cord (accidentally yanked mine out of a twist socket without loosening it) and the guys at @TruckFridge immediately overnighted me a new one.

    Mounted up on a TF slide.

    @LooneytuneSR5



    I have that same insulated cover for my TF41, along with a folded moving pad from Harbour Freight that lays over the top. I'm sure the insulated cover , plus the moving pad on top help. On a two week outing - the lowest voltage reading from my auxiliary battery was 12.1 volts. That was after 60 hour lay over with mild ambient temperatures that were in the 70's during the day and around 60 at night. I set my fridge to +1° C.

    My platform is on the driver's side in my Access Cab. My auxiliary battery is inside an ArkPak 715, which fits between the passenger seat and the rear hump containing the jack. I also added #10 gauge wire loom to the battery with a 12 volt cigarette socket to run the fridge directly off the truck battery rather than the auxiliary battery while driving. The idea is to replenish the auxiliary battery while driving, without having any current draw from the fridge.

    What cover is that? I have a TF51 and was looking for a cover. Metaltech has the IronMan cover for $105 but wanted to see what brand this one was. Thanks

    The above cover is for a WAECO fridge -which are now branded as Dometic CoolFreeze fridges. It only fit either an Indel B TB41A, WAECO CoolFreeze CF-40 or the Truck Fridge TF41.

    I believe this particular WAECO cover may soon be or is now an extinct item due to Dometic changing the design of the fridges with redesigned top covers, different power cord locations and redesigned handles - which now fold flush at each end.
