Pantry and fridge slide out ideas....and other modes for new ft
« on: April 17, 2012, 09:16:02 AM »
Hey guys, recently bought our customline ct and getting it ready for our 12 month adventure around Australia. We leave in around 6 weeks.
Some modes we are keen to do are; pantry/fridge slide out. We have a tailgate kitchen but need something for the fridge and food...any ideas photos or posts would be great.
Battery and led lighting wiring and set up...any one have any mobile auto elects in Melbourne?
What do I need to do to get my water tank ready?
Lastly how do people transport their weber q?
Thanks heaps guys...also my blog details are below....

Hi,

Congrats on deciding to do the big trip! I'll be following your blog :)

If you need a storage box, you can't go past the Drifta slide out box: http://drifta.com.au/StorageBoxes.php

I had a look at them at the show the other day - the ones with the draws in the end make a lot of sense - plenty of extra storage right at the kitchen. They slide on polyethylene skids on the floor of the camper but they are really smooth and easy to pull out. Easy to fit yourself too. They do a shorter one that will leave space for the kitchen on your tailgate.

Happy travels!
Bryan

I think a fridge would be too heavy for the box - it's not on bearing slides...

Luke seems pretty flexible - they'll build whatever you want! I'd give em a call :)

Are you sure you want the fridge in the camper? We prefer ours to be in the back of the truck so it always goes with us...
