Finally got to building out a drawer system for my WJ from ideas on here. Still working on a few bits, but it's functional already and I love being able to slide out the stove, make coffee, and slide it back in to pack up.

I've been thinking of doing something like this myself.
Do you miss not having access to the floor-hatch in the back?

I'm running tires bigger than what will fit in there for a spare so I'm thinking of maybe storing my tool set and other things I don't access often in there. And the way I have this built, if I unclip it from the tie downs it slides toward the front of the vehicle and I can get into that storage spot.

Can you advise on what sliders/rails you used and how they are holding up to some use. My coming up to-do will to build a drawer system for the cruiser.
Thanks!
Thanks!
They're shop fox 26" full extension. Got them from Amazon:
Holding up fine. Since I'm really only ever out for a few days at a time, and I pack like I'm still in the infantry, my loads stay light and these are having no issues at all.

Thanks! I was looking at on Zon(Amazon). I am a light packer, but def will be getting the most heavy duty I can find. I think 500Lb is the way I'm planning though. Just cause I hate stuff breaking..
Thanks KP!
