    Can anyone recommend a fridge slide? I have a SnoMaster TR42 mounted to the bed of my truck using L-track, but now I'm seeing the benefit of being able to slide the fridge out for easy access. Wondering what others are using. Pricing and pros and cons?

    Bump. Curious if anyone has made a DIY one with some slides for a lot cheaper.

    I ended up buying this one from Walmart.com.

    Dometic CFX Slide

    I drilled some holes and bolted it down. Done. I don't have any fabrication tools and trying to time with friends who do is next to impossible. So for under $170, it was a no brainer.

    Yeah that's a no brainer. The price of the other ones are utterly insane, but $170 is much more manageable.

    That was my thought too. I was seeing them for $300+. When I was trying to research materials to build my own, and take into account my time, and my friends time, and time to design a fridge slide, and fabrication... $170 was an easy decision.
