    Is there anyway I can toss a sheet of plywood down in the bed, mount it using the existing tie down holes/bolts, and Mount a fridge slide to that?

    Just trying to avoid having to drill through my bed

    Yes, it's called a baseplate. There are lots of threads that you can search for that contain pics of what you're looking for.

    Absolutely. You can see how I did it here. Obviously yours will be a bit different, but conceptually it can be similar. I've since changed the configuration a few times to better meet my needs, but I still use the fridge slide and the handle to push/pull everything from under the tent.

    that looks awesome, although I was hoping on mounting it a little further forward. With it that far back has it ever caused you any troubles?

    By forward, do you mean toward the rear of the truck?

    you can have it rest anywhere you want in the bed - that’s the great thing about this design. The narrow bit of plywood you see there with the little cut out is a handle that you use to pull the entire platform toward the tailgate or push it in toward the cab. Make the handle longer or shorter to meet your needs of positioning the plywood platform.

    you can see how I built it by clicking on the link in the post.
