Similar to a design I was thinking about, except I would drill holes to mount the bearing from underside so only the bearing is exposed above the thickness of the base plywood. I would take a router to counter bore an area the thickness of the flange so bottom is one level surface. Little more work but keeping slide tray at lowest possible stack height is what I would want in a design. You also can cut in hand hold opening instead of adding a handle that sticks above the surface that impedes the loading and unloading.... but overall, good DIY build....Thanks for sharing.

You can source recessed rollers. I think the smallest have 5/8" depth. You can use 3/4" plywood or step up your 1/2" ply with some runner boards underneath.
I used two sheets of 3/8" plywood. I put 4 rolls of 5 roller ball bearings on the bottom of the top sheet. The bottom sheet is screwed down to the bed of the truck with couple of screws from sliding. Placing the rollers on the bottom of the top sheet requires less rollers. You don't have to worry about the slide buckling from the weight of the load and snag on to the rollers. Placing rollers on top of the bottom sheet requires more rollers to prevent snagging. Back 1/3 of my slide has no rollers. I put 1x4 to level off the slide. This let's me put really heavy load in the back of the slide without the worries of damaging the rollers. Mine too slides with one hand with ease. I did make mine from watching your video. 😊

3/8 ply seems kinda thin how's it holding up?
What can't you freaking build or fix? Great job Dan. Dad'll love that. Wow!
Dads going to love it!
That is a great idea Dan looks good
Good looking project excellent gift
Nice set up. Thanks.
I'm concerned about flex when pulled all the way out. I like the initial design but would thing of some modifications to prevent it. I plan to use two separate slides also put a front stop on it so things won't fall off the front when braking. I got a great start from you Dan, Thanks!!!
An other great job DW🙏👍🙏👍🙏

Beautiful MacGyver s*** again I love it dude
I like the anti-tilt brackets on the side for safety. Only problem is if you're caring 4x8 sheets, you'll have to just slide them on top of those side brackets, but I guess that would still work to carry 4x8s sheeting ..

Or You could just put another piece of wood on top of the rollers to raise it up To get it higher than the swing arms

Good Son.
I have a tool box on my truck and want to have an elevated slide so I can still put 8' material in the back and shut the tailgate. Wonder if that's possible with this design 🤔
Could you something similar to make a bed that slides out off the side of a tray back
I don’t have a tonneau cover or bed cover. How could you waterproof this to work in rain and not destroy the wood??
@IFixShet

Use pressure treated wood or cover it in waterproofing coating
Where you found the rollers? Link please … grate job 👍
How much weight will it hold? Will it glide with a ton of weight?
how did you get the base of the slider to stay
Like the fact no drilling. I have a different version I might post. Was at home improvements store and actually some people came over to look. They had a $2000 version installed and said they didn't like it. Took up space and had to drill holes for bolts into the truck bed ...
Pretty cool! Don't you think it could have worked with about half those rollers?

I mean sure however if you want to put some serious weight on it you're going to want the extra rollers. By doing it this way there's no limitations

Say if you have an heavy item like a generator sitting on your new rolling truck bed right when you open the tail gate of the truck. And you pull the slide out all the way with the generator on it . Will your whole plywood near the back of your truck come up in the air because of how heavy the generator is when you extend it all the way out

You need to put rollers on your tailgate as well. Three of them screwed into the tailgate should do the trick we raised them with a small piece of wood.

Why wouldn't you just take the generator off before you slid it out?
Tried this approach and very noisy. May be great for a work vehicle but not for a camper type truck because each bearing produces noise and the combined effect can be heard a mile away in the quiet woods. I went with giant telescoping cabinet sliders instead which are working fine Thanks for the tips, though!

Cabinet slides can also be had with stops to keep it from sliding further than you would like it to or back and forth every time you go up and down a hill.

Does the lower board need to be mounted to the truck bed or just set it on in?

DIY is always going to be exactly the way you want it to be; rather than store bought.
I didn't hear that he put any type of stops to prevent the top piece from being pulled all the way out and falling on the ground. Or, did I just miss that part?
