Eezi Awn Table mount JK
Here is a quick description of how to mount a Medium Eezi Awn K9 camp table under your AT Overland JK interior cargo rack.
You will need to buy some Under Rack Storage slides from Front Runner.
Measure and drill accordingly to mount the Storage Slides underneath your cargo rack (you will be storing your table lengthwise left to right)
The rear of the cargo rack has a tube that runs the full width, which creates a lower lip. You will need to use/make some sort of a spacer (you could simply stack washers, or get as fancy as you wish), to lower the slides to make it possible to slide your table in and out.
This, of course, will create open space above your table when stored; allowing the table to clank around anytime you hit a bump. To keep that from happening, you will want to make some sort of “stop” above your storage slides. I grabbed a small drop of heavy aluminum sheet from a metal supply shop, and made a small stop for each slide. You could just as easily pick up some aluminum/steel flat stock from Home Depot or something, and run it all the way across left to right and it would have the same effect.
At the front of your slides (the end facing the front of your jeep) you will want to make a “stop” so in the event of hard braking, your table will stay put. This can be accomplished by drilling a hole in the slide and placing a stainless steel socket cap bolt through it with a nut on either side of the slide to lock the bolt in place.
To get a tighter, absolutely rattle/noise free mount, we then purchased some fabric piping that was roughly ¼”- 3/8” in diameter, from a fabric store (of the heaviest fabric we could find) and riveted it to the undersides of either end of the table. This piping will be up against the aluminum stops that you placed above the slides when your table is stored, holding it firmly in place.
One last thing to make absolutely sure your table doesn’t rattle around while driving, is to use some strategically placed Velcro strips on your table. Run two strips of the fuzzy side of Velcro (you can buy a roll at Home Depot) on the underside of your table where the legs rest when stowed, and use two small Velcro “one-wrap” straps to hold the legs tightly together when table is stored.
Hopefully this all makes sense. Writing detailed instructions always makes something seem more complicated than it really is. Feel free to ask questions if I’ve left something out.
