Thread: Ok Stupid Question But

Appropriate sized 'square U' shaped rails mounted sideways and fixed to the rack rails. Table slides in/out like a draw. It sits up-side-down with legs folded into the tabletop recess. Table has small projection on one end that has a hole in it and that slides over a peg with a drop clip (like on early LR tailgates. The rails have some fine carpet like material glued to the lower surface. Not sure if this is to reduce rattle or to make the table slide more smoothly (I suspect the former). Hope this helps, but feel free to get back to me.

You can get all the current costs of the Dolium website, Opposite Lock website, Mulgo's site etc.
