Here is mine; not anywhere as fancy as some, but it does help me keep organized. I keep my cooking gear on the bottom and table gear on the upper shelves.

That hoist lift thingie for the fridge is pretty cool!

That hoist lift thingie for the fridge is pretty cool!

It was such a struggle to lug the fridge down to the tailgate and back up again every time I wanted to get something out. A straight slide did not help as the hatch was in the way of the fridge lid.

I found the idea for the 'drop down fridge slide' on an Australian web site. Contacted the company, but they would not ship to the US. Guessed at the measurements and built my own. Took about two weekends and it works great. Not that hard to build.

I see you are in SoCal, you should come to a club meeting, click on the link: http://www.socallandcruisers.com

Great looking set-up, let's see some more pics and details of the overall truck!

Thanks!

I then proceeded to build it myself. The slide took about two weekends to build. I'm not an engineer or a fabricator. But I do have a cutoff saw and a mig welder.

Inquiring minds really want to know. Any hints on how that thing goes together? Or a photo spread. We do want to see the whole truck, but I'm drooling over the fridge slide.

Mark, really nice.
And the left side could double as a bed too for quick trips without setting up a tent outside.

See pictures below. If you check this web site, they give general dimensions http://www.platinumgear.com.au/index.html

The slides are Accuride 9301-32; they are about $130 a pair.

I don’t have any drawings as I made it up as I went along. From the above website there is a YouTube video that shows the slide in action.

Thanks Corey! It's set up just the way I like. Some people buy new cars all at once; I buy a new car one part at a time!

I'm doubly impressed here, both by Mark's clever kitchen-in-a-drawer concept and Jerry's impressive fridge slider (and truck!)

Thanks, now i see a little better how the whole thing works. I had a little brain stick as to the up and down of it all.

Thanks again

PS Beautiful rig too by the way, I love the color.
