Sideways slide base for Dometic chest refrigerator (CFX-40W)

[LostInTheWorld]

We have a Dometic CFX-40W that we are putting in our Unimog expedition truck. We are looking for a slide base that allows us to slide the refrigerator sideways. We like the design of the normal Dometic CFX‑SLD3540 slide, but it slides the refrigerator the long direction and that will not work for our application.

I've done a bunch of googling, but haven't found much. I can make a custom one, but I'd rather just purchase a sideways slide if one exists.

Anyone our there know of an aftermarket sideways slide? Anyone out there make their own sideways slide?

Thanks,
Michael

Never really understood the hoopla of fancy drawer sliders except for when sliding it from inside to outside of rig. When inside and have option of designing your own setup.. just put it at damn floor level and use good ol' appliance sliders and save hundreds of dollars. Those sliders are so damn expensive the money you save will almost pay for a whole trip somewhere and back. (half way there in my truck lol) ok. so I'm a cheap but practical bastard.

Appliance roller around 50$
Furniture slider around 10$

I think in some applications like mine, I have to slide fridge out of back fj to open lid.

Why use a portable fridge at all? Go with a good rv compressor fridge.

We are open to other options (like using a RV compressor fridge), but we already have the CFX-40W, it's quite efficient, and it fits nicely in our floor-plan.
