hey dez the best way to get some heavy duty draw slides is to get a bit of rhs on either side of your draw and then run some bearings top and bottom of the rhs this is what is done on my draws that are in the back of my 80 series if you need some pics to see what i mean let me know

try a company called Hafele, they have a range of types and sizes. Also have an online catalogue with all the runner details.

interesting you say that. At work they are getting rid of lots or racking runners, not bearings but rollers so would be great to see some pics of your set up. cheers

Good company that. Ive worked on theyre coach a bit. They spend quite a bit of money every year fitting out a coach with all theyre latest kitchen stuff, then drive it around Australia showing it off.


Anyway yeh as someone mentioned before, use some RHS, and buy a bulk pack of rollerblade bearings off ebay and run it in them. Works a treat.
