If it is standard size (450mm or 600mm) you are after, Bunnings, Mr Ply and Wood, any DIY kitchen place. If longer, not sure. I made my own 1500mm long _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx for the back of the Hilux, but used bearings and RHS steel for slides.

John, I built my own outfit with _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx and fidge slide using items obtained from 'Howard Silvers Hardware' of 45 Britton St, Smithfield NSW 2164 Ph. 02 9757 0811. I phoned with order and paid by C/card. Frieght was very reasonable to the North Coast NSW. Reason for using them was; I required longer items than can be purchased locally and heavy built items. Draw slides 1800x800mm $27.12 a pair & fridge slide 4000x900mm $126.03 a pair. These carry over 100kls hence the cost.
Try Universal Engineers' Supplies (aust) Pty Ltd for high quality Flush Trigger Lever Latches (www.uestint.com) and Upholstering Distributors Aust Pty Ltd for Spectropile Carpet (Lava) for coverings. Used 'form ply' for main box contruction and recycled plastic (Foamlite Black Sheet) in _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx Results $2,000-$2,500 arrangement for $500 total.
Regards Bleb.

Hey Bleb.
"Draw slides 1800x800mm $27.12 a pair & fridge slide 4000x900mm $126.03 a pair."
Is that a typo error on those sizes or can you really buy slides at 1.8 metres & 4 metres???
I'm not having a go at ya!!!! just really keen if they do exist at that price, let me know will you.
Cheers.

Down here on the Gold Coast at Mermaid Distributors in Bailey Cres Southport, they have Hettich roller systems.... Mine is the 900mm unit, rated at 100kg extended and cost $115. A very sturdy unit!

The hettich sides are possibly the best

JP, just returned from a great extended weekend at Woody Head.
The product description given is simple that! (Used by manufacturer) 800mm for the draw slides and 900mm for Fridge slide. As since received, I see they can be purchased elsewhere for less.
PS the unit is strong enough to survive the Simpson Desert.
Happy building,
Bleb
