Looks good to me. Also interested if anyone has personal experience.
 
I like this idea also. No experience with the company, but I send them an email to see if they could make something similar for the Land Cruiser.
 
OK, here is the response I got from Black Forest Gear:

"...Chris,

The slides can be adapted to any product or vehicle. They have several mounting holes to attach to a myriad of vehicles or applications. The intention with the developing a baseplate for the Jeep Wrangler is purely driven by volume vehicles sold.


I hope that helps, thank you for your time.


Ryan Evans..."

Not sure if I am ready to buy this and figure out if the hardware will fit my 200 or not. I'll have to think on that.

If they could make available a cad diagram or some doc with the dimensions and location of all the mount points. That would help.

It's for an ARB fridge.

I'll try to dig up a pic.

that's pretty cool.

I'd like one strong/long enough to hold my 60qt cooler.

Very nice. How did you mount it to your 80?

I used one of the 3rd row seat mounting bolts and the rear cargo hook thingie. Worked out pretty well.
 
@surfpig I wonder if it would be sturdy enough for one of the newer 50qt models. Hmm.
 
Doesn't look like it will fit the ARB 50qt fridge. The dimensions of the footprint of the ARB :Exterior Footprint: 27.75"L x 14.96"W x 20"H"
and you look at the dimensions of the part where the fridge would sit (interior tray:Slide Well (Interior Tray) | 23.5"L x 13.875"W x 1.25"D), the tray is too small. :(

I'm sure it would be. I think it has holes in the slider for the feet but I'm not really sure. It can certainly fit a larger fridge than mine. It fits my 55q Igloo ice chest like it was made for it.

You might be looking at the wrong sized one: my ARB (43q) is ~14 1/2"w x 25"l. The slider tray is 16"w x 29+"l

Did you just mount it with standard off the shelf parts? Did you had cut some metal on the tray.

I had to drill a couple of holes in the base of the slider.

I bought a Indel-B 51 qt from truckfridge through the tacomaworld group buy (still going on) for $449.

Indel-B Fridge/Freezer Sale - Spring 2017

It looks like it will be a perfect fit for the indel-b 51.

fridge: 23.0"L X 13 ¾"W
slider tray:23.5"L x 13.875"W

Thanks for the find
