Mount Fridge Clearview Easy Slide Tray to Rear Cargo Shelf? - Toyota 4Runner Forum

I am looking to mount a fridge slider in the back of my Limited (has rear cargo shelf) and was wondering if I could mount it directly to the shelf or if I'd need to remove it and add a thick piece of plywood to replace it. That way I could mount the slide directly to the plywood instead?

I don't think the shelf would be strong enough to withstand the weight of the slide and fridge.

This is the rear cargo shelf:

This is the slide I'd like to install:

Thank you so much for your help!

Not a chance that the shelf will support it

I think you could get away with it if you had supports bolted through the shelf mounting to the bed. The shelf alone is going to collapse. Imagine a pier with the veritcal log supports below. You need that.

The manual states that the shelf can support up to 66 pounds. That being said, I wouldn't try it being that the weight of the fridge can't really be distributed properly without reinforcement. And by the time the shelf is reinforced properly... well, might as well replace the whole thing.

I figued it wouldn't hold, definitely makes sense to just remove that shelf instead. Thanks for the insight gents!
