Maybe you can put a basket / elevated side rails on the top slider to allow stuff to remain there when you have to open it...I like the way it fits in with the new freezer fridge (darn it !!

Looking great I have been gone to the desert in Nevada for some training for a few months and I am headed back out to sea for another month of training but I would really like to see the rig and get out for a run. I noticed the LED taillights as well right?

Re: Ollie's "BugEater" Build
Damn Jeremy... I thought you had decided to bail on us after BorregoFest. It is good to hear from you. Are you guys living in Eastlake now? I thought I saw your wife in the FJ a few months ago turning at the corner of Olympic and E. Palomar. I have another Otay Mt run coming up on the 16th if you're going to be in town. I'll have my son with me. If you can't make it maybe we can get together after work some evening.

Re: Ollie's "BugEater" Build
Ollie,
Sorry for the lack of comms I have only been home about 6 weeks out of this year getting ready to deploy again. In that time we did buy a house in Bonita right near Eastlake so that had to be her. I saw the run to Otay however, I head out for a month on Mon so I won't be able to make it. I will give you a call once I am back and see what you have on the table. I am sure that you are going to be busy with the new baby. The rig is looking great as always I like the new bumper I am sure in the last few months you have gotten some cool new gadgets.

Finished my cargo box up on Thursday by painting it and adding one of my favorite memorials to it.

Installed next to the fridge.

Re: Ollie's "BugEater" Build
Very nice, Ollie...
Does the front of the box drop down ?
I know the top slides open, but I noticed the wing nut on the front section and figured you'd added front access as well...
Looks good next to that ARB Freezer-Fridge
