my cheap assed draw set up. 98 GU st patrol wagon. cheap but works
Hi all, thought these pix might help anyone looking to do their own draw set up.
Materials cost under $300. The most expensive bits were the SKF bearings. The recessed part at the back of each draw is to house two 98ah Gel-Tech deep cycles ( I know the one in the pic is an AGM), when the draw is closed they are tightly secured. I still haven't finished yet as I still have to install a Ctek charger and associated bits and pieces, I will post new pix when it is all shmicko. Also I haven't forked out the coin for draw handles or latches yet, they ain't cheap, so if anyone has any suggestions would be good.
I only used 1 X 15mm, 1 X 12mm and 1 X 9mm sheets of 8X4 ply, was able to do this with a little bit of thought and was left with very little waste. All tech screwed and glued. I have seen on forums mention of the problem of the "mountainous" floor in the back, just cut around the bits that stick up. I used a bit of 3mm MDF to make templates for fitting the top panels. All was done in the garage with a 3 year old trying to pinch my tools and a 6month old terrorising the misses who in turn terrorised me.
The fridge slide fits a 40lt engle, JUST fits.
I know it aint perfect but it works, was cheap and is my first attempt.
