Has anyone taken a fridge out and replaced it with another? How hard is it to do?

I have done one in my TT and then again in my Class A.. A little extra bracing and blocked the gas off.. I works great.. The night before we head out I power up rig and I am about to install a inverter so I can power it while driving to and from..

I put a full size Dorm fridge in and its been great...

Didn't 'replace' the whole fridge but did change-out the cooling unit. Check out our YouTube video: Our Norcold to Amish Built Cooling Unit Change-out You may pick up a few tips as we did have to remove the fridge to do it.

Measure it up first; might not fit through the door. Then the only option is to remove a large window.

What is a full size Dorm fridge? If full size, wouldn't it be a home fridge?

Are you having trouble with the current fridge in your unit? If so, what kind of trouble?
