A:Answer I don't know how you would move it without the rear wheels. I think that would cause you more problems. See if you can carve out that extra 1/4 inch in height. That would be a much better option. I have an exactly 72 inch height cutout, and it fits like a glove with perhaps 1/8 inch allowance for the hinge. The door would be hitting the cutout if I pushed it back that far. So maybe you would get by with an additional 1/8 inch, but I can't be certain. Also, you should allow a little clearance for the refrigerator to breath properly.
