    So I picked up a used Arb 50qt from a guy upgrading to a larger size. He and the deal were legit so I fee this is user error. I have never used one before and I guess I expected it to be like a normal fridge. He told me the sweet spot was 28 for cold and 18 for freeze when using. I felt...

    Does anyone know if the front runner rack would would if you have the rhino back bone system? They not mount at the same points and not sure if that's a option or making a different mount is worth it.

    Aev wheels or Hutchinson

    Granted its not even a match for the price. What I wonder, for expedition / overland style (mtns in co, death valley etc) are the bead locks pointless? I like the idea of being able to roll on a flat if needed, but really are the worth it for over landing? Should I just go aev wheels?
