I've got ?100mm incandescent (aircraft landing type) fitted to the top corners of my canopy. They allow me to see everything I need to when reversing, with the bonus that I can see onto or behind a trailer I might have attached. You could achieve the same by adding your new rounds to the top of your dog box.

Attached is basically what I want to do with mine. Still haven't decided on the bearings/slides, or the material to use for the tray. I found this - https://panelmate.com.au/collections/panels - figuring it my be light, strong and durable. If it doesn't work out, good old ply with be my go to material.
The idea is to store the spare at the front, as access will be infrequent (hopefully!) and will keep the weight in close, lowering the leverage force on the slide.
This would also serve as a cooking platform, and storage repository for typical Land Rover spares (never enough room though!), amongst other things.

I contemplated the exact same design with then rear quarter tanks for Diego and water
I changed back as the fuel and water would have put >150kg behind the centreline of tray
My rails were specced though to take a draw like you have drawn
My thought was build it as I already have , 1800mm long draw slides attached to Al channel
Fold up a draw in aluminium with a lid that drops into s sealing lip with some clamps to keep it water tight???
