I am looking for a HD drawer slide type unit to mount a large pullout shelf or drawer for my workvan. I have seen these before but cannot find now. Kind of like the packrat setup but I want to make the drawer out of AC ply. Any help?

The tools in my truck were talking the other day.  The Dewalts, PC's, Boschs, Makitas were not happy.  They also were in the minority.  Their complaint:  They felt unused and unappreciated since the Festools moved in.  I guess the truth hurts.

DF 500 Q, HL850E-Plus, CT22, 5 systainers and several accessories. I'm just a rank Festool beginner, but I'm trying hard. Smiley Oh yeah, now that I own a FOG hat 2011 edition, I guess I'm not such a beginner anymore.

I have used them and think we got the 500# rated ones for shop drawers. I stood in the drawer and it didn't even flinch.

I did something like it,but mine has a lower setting.I mounted the wheels so that i only had 1/2" clearance at the bottom.
I am now redoing the back of my truck,I will have more storage and better access.I have to remake the tray witch will be more narrow than before.But still be wide enought for what i need.
