Great video, so you mounted the rails onto the bottom of your vehicle. Is the fridge free standing on the black panel you sprayed and not mounted onto it?
We added 4 bolts to the angle bracket that sit perfectly inside of the rubber feet on the bottom of the fridge. The weight of the fridge holds it in place, while still making it removable if needed.
Be very careful using drawer sliders for supporting 12 volt RV fridge/freezers, especially if the unit will be mounted in the back of a vehicle and when pulled out, extend beyond the rear bumper. These drawer sliders are designed for drawers that usually hold clothing, and a big 75~100 quart Dometic or ARB fridge/freezer is way heavier; maybe well over 120 pounds when filled with food and beverage containers. If your fridge is so heavy that you can't pick it up when it's loaded, I suspect that it is too heavy to safely support with drawer slides.
Thanks for this video. How is it doing so far ?

its bolted to the black panel panel and the black panel is screwed into the floor of the van.
How did you mount the fridge to the slider?

There are several companies that make full extension drawer slides that support up to 500lbs fully extended.
How did you mount the fridge on the slider?
