Thread: Homebrew fridge/stove slide combo

  1. #1

    Default Homebrew fridge/stove slide combo

    I wanted the fridge/stove slide combo from AT but didn't want to pay $700 for it...



    so I spent $60 and built my own.



    I used 100lb slides and 3/4 sanded ply. i set it up so the fridge slide at full extension rests on the tail gate to allow me to exceed the 100lb slide limit.



    I cant lie, the fact that every thing fit absolutely perfect was a complete coincidence. there is about 1/8" between the 3rd seats and the angle of the tailgate worked perfect.



    the base is 18 x 28 so i when i can afford a legit fridge (probably a cheap edgestar) it should fit perfectly.





    I threw a quick coat of rubberized undercoat on it, and will finish it later.



    it installs and comes out in about 20 seconds if need be, mounted to the 3rd row seat mounts.



    heading to the beach this weekend with burgers, dogs, and beer for a shake down run.



    sure its not as refined as AT's product, but since i can afford to build 11 more for the price, i think this will do for now.

    I like it! Where does the propane tank attach to the stove?

    Super nice job! Put a $300 (or more) price tag on it and call it a day.

    Looks great! I would run a strap over the top of the cooler when on the road b/c the latch can be popped open with very little force.

    Awesome. How does it secure to the 3rd row seat mount?
