410EX JK tailgate foldup table

[Cappy410]

With the cost of brand name foldup tables being ridiculously high, I designed my own table. A local fab shop made me the table $50 and Home Depot provided

the hardware $10. And voila!

That's kind of similar to what I did for my own tailgate table...
Mine's not very fancy, but it works for the needs we have - a little snack table, drink tray, etc.

It's perfect. Great job

I like it. What exactly did you ask the fab shop to do? I was looking at the tables and really like them but 350 bucks
Could be spent elsewhere or not at all lol. Really would like to do a low cost option so any info would be great. Also any rattling around when your driving. Anything you would do different?

@stoney126 I asked the fab shop to cut a 27"x16" piece of 1/8" aluminum and give me 4 folds at 3/4". Not rattling at all. I'll take closer pics for you and post them on this thread.

I'd be interested in a few additional pics.. Looks like a DIY to add to my list

I like diy projects too. Don't get me wrong that table for sale is pretty nice and I really like that there is no drilling. Wonder if I got some plastic inserts at the shop....hmmm

how much did the actual table top cost you with the bends? thinking of adding one to my tire carrier on the nissan

thats not bad at all! especially considering the price of some of the pre-made tables out there

 

[Cappy410]

I know! I couldn't get myself spending $300 on such a simple build

thats like on the storage system i just built. Im in it for probly $450, and if i had to buy it, it would likely be $1000 to $1100, not including the hatch lights i installed

 

[Cappy410]

i'd like to see that

I think this is an awesome mod, if my Jeep hatch didn't open up^ then i would be getting one! Downfall of a WJ, i guess.
