Use the mounting points for the rear seats to mount a marine ply base board that ypou mount the fridge slide into using captive bolts.

Hi Jack,
If your confident that your tank has clearance from the underside of the floor you could use these Hollo Bolts there used for single sided fixing and then you wouldn’t need to drop the tank there available from a href="http://www.bindereng.com.au/contact_us.asp">Binder Engineering Hope this Helps?

i have the same engle & slide, as said on the other post, i bolted the slide to a sheet of ply that fitted into the back of the cruiser, the engle can't tip over, and the rest of our gear on the ply helps hold it in place when you slide it out for a well deserved beer!!!!!!!!!!!

when not using the frige the whole lot just lifts out to be stored in the shed.

Member - Jack replied:

Much obliged folks ... the ply option seems to have many advantages, including being able to just pick it up and remove it.

I looked at that bolt idea but cannot work out what clearance I have between the body and the fuel tank.

Appreciate your advice and assistance.

Here's a link I found when looking to do something similar myself.

They used the engel transit slide lock, but the principle is the same.

Hope it helps.............
