Customer photo review of Sliding Tray Drawer for GWM CANNON 2020+

I found this sliding tray system easy to install & great to use, The only drawback was the loss of useable tray height with a electric roller cover. So I installed a canopywhich solved the height problem. The sliding tray makes it very easy to reach anywhere in the tray without climbing into the tray. It's worth every cent.

Customer photo review of Sliding Tray Drawer for Isuzu D-Max 2012-2024

If you have a 2023 D- max with a tub liner my advice is remove it before installing sliding tray. They supply gap fillers for keep the tub liner, but the tub liner & raised lumps in the Ute bed are off set. So this turned into a nightmare install because we wanted the tub liner still. The result was the need to add 2 more bolts in the center & this caused the slide platform to bow upwards. This then caused it to catch & screech when in use. The answer was then to grind down the upwards bow section. I will say there is nothing wrong with the slide it's self, but be aware of keeping tub liner.:dizzy_face:‍:dizzy:

Thank you so easy to do business with you ! Maybe a little better instruction paperwork would help an old bloke like me to assemble. But the unit is great. .cheers Bushy

Ute Sliding Tray RAM 1500 5'7" Ute Bed Slide

Great product. The sliding tray makes it easy to access camping gear in the front of the tray. You do lose some height in the tray, but that's not a problem when you have a hard canopy too - plenty of room for the camping fridge/freezer on 4wd adventures.
