I’m not near the Jeep at the moment, but I can tell you it’s half of the total width. It can be used on either side or you can buy 2 for a full bed.

Deep sleep 4 Jeep.

Thanks a lot for that, it should fit in mine then even with the fridge slide

it should here is how my fridge on the slide sets and it fits fine.

Love that. I would say cut the height by about half and it looks perfect.

I agree, though I might not be able to cut that much. Once the rear seats are out, a fridge will go on the driver side floor, which will dictate how much I can chop.

Great looking set up, can you tell me how wide the Deepsleep mattress is at the tailgate end where the logo is located? I have a fridge slide on the drivers side and want to make sure theres enough room for the mattress.
Thanks

21" by the tailgate. It fits fine next to my ARB 37 without slide.

I'm revamping it now to lower it a bit. I'm too close to the ceiling. I'll remove the backseats and pit my fridge there... should let me lower it 3 inches or so.

Nice job! What is the overall length front to back?

I had that number when I built it... memory is just over 6'. I'm 5'10" and sleep comfortably. I'll install it again this weekend and measure. (I may need a reminder).

Thanks, 6' is good. Looks like you can still sit in the passenger seat comfortably!

Thats about perfect, I think I have 22” to the edge of the slide.

Looking to do something similar, do you have any pics during the build? Is the system 1 or 2 piece, and pics of the bracing/legs. I would need to be able to remove it when not in use. Thanks!

It’s homemade.

It's two piece and removable. No pictures... took me a couple of hours to build.

I will be modding it to make it lower, and be able to use it with no rear seats. Then I'll add a couple of lids so I can access under where the rear seats used to be. Driver side will hold a fridge. I'll be taking pictures for that one. I'll also be adding hangers so I can tie down the section to the jeep floor.

Do you have links to what you purchased to make the slider or a list and where you bought the supplies? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just bought some locking drawer slides off Amazon and some aluminum angle from my local hardware store and started cutting and bolting (I don’t have a welder) it together. Sorry I can’t be of more help, I’m not the type that draws out plans on a computer or even on paper. I just get an idea in my head and keep working on it until it’s the way I want.
