    Single draw with fridge on top

    Just wondering, does anyone or has anybody seen a single draw, with a fridge slider on top fitted in a GU ? I for one, am not a fan of full draws taking up full real estate of the rear area.
    I know single draws etc exist, but I'm curiouss, how it's mounted to the floor. Full draws have a full board of some sort going all the way across and bolted down or whatnot...

    This is what I'd like and one of few photos I found (photo is not of a GU).

    Thoughts ?

    looks like the one in the photo has a full board at the bottom, so no doubt utilizes the the usual bolt holes

    As above mate and is what I did with mine but no drawer just the box around fridge slide with oven above.

    I know a lot of people have the fridge ontop of drawers but the height of the fridge must annoy the ship out of the misses in finding stuff in the fridge unless their 6 foot plus.

    drawers usually have an open frame you bolt in then bolt the drawer frame to that or thats how mine is anyway. i have two drawers and a double floor with no rear seats for extra storage and because its flat i can sleep in the side that there is no fridge.

    when funds permit, I'd like to get something on the lines of this, but have it so each section is separate and easily removable. So I can either take the fridge section out and keep the drawer in, or remove the drawer and keep the fridge section in. Or keep both in.

    Thanks a lot for the replies folks. As I said, above I'm not a fan of a full drawer setup. Ideally, I'd like one draw, fridge on top. One draw for basic tools and stuff constantly in the car. Rather than have a full draw setup fitted full time, adding weight to the car wherever you go. If I was travlling more often, then fair enough. But a trip here and there doesn't warrant a full setup imo.

    Top idea mate. I like it. I'm thinking of just the base, which won't raise the floor that much, and box the fridge in @ floor height and then add/stack everything else around it including my travel buddy on top!

    Something like this. But obviously carpetted etc...

    Ok maybe it's not the bloke I was talking to then... Will still look at theirs. Spewing I missed them as they were at the show weekend gone and I can't remember seeing them.
    I checked out http://grunt4x4.com.au/ and they have a grouse modular setup, very light too.
