Tom,
Those are a standard drawer slide that are normally used on the side of the
drawer. GM used them on the bottom so they could stamp
a little dingus that allowed the drawer to latch in the closed position. A
bunch of years ago, I had a friend make a fixture to stamp the
little dingus in the standard slide. I made up a batch of them, but they
were a slow seller. I lost track of the fixture and lost interest in
the project. It's not a good set-up as the slides were not designed to be
used in that position. Bob Burkitt made a better arrangement
using a slider on both sides of the drawer. But, you have to make
provisions to keep the drawers closed. Always a big problem!
