@Jeepsies
Can anyone share a photo and the name of their flip down tailgate table for their Jeep Wrangler?
I've watched a few videos and am trying to decide on which one to get. It seems that the Goose Gear (with bamboo slide out) has been a popular one that has proven itself.
Not sure if you've seen this one yet but came up in my video suggestions today

I made a tailgate table that I can easily put on my TJ or LJ when I need it.





It's held in place by 2 brackets that go over the tailgate. It doesn't require any hardware except for the 4 thumbscrews that connect the table to the brackets. I can take it with me in 3 pieces and assemble it when I get there (camping, tailgating, etc.) . I can also lift it off when I want to.

Yes sir, that’s the ticket.....functionality, well done!!!!

Thanks. It works well. I tossed the 3 burner stove though. I found it hard to cook evenly with it. I replaced it with a similar Coleman stove that I am much happier with. I also installed a small turnbuckle on each of the chains so I can level out the table. The eggs kept sliding out of the pan every time I tried to fry them! ha ha

I built another tailgate table. The first one is shown in post #19 above and will be used on my TJ when needed. This one is permanently mounted to my LJ.



It's sized to support a Coleman stove … but I'm sure I'll find some other uses for it.

Lol, I had the same book perched on my Tuffy last year! That's an essential piece of kit!

@Jeepsies, I run the Outback Adventures Trailgater table.

I went with their system for a few reasons, very impressive build quality, style, extended cutting board/table space, and installs with no drilling at all.

It’s definitely one of my most used mods

I Just picked this up for my JLU. They are expensive, but for being a no-drill solution it cannot be beat. Doubles as a baby changing station by adding a safety strap.

This is my Springtail Solutions table, it's the older version but has worked well, also a no drill:

I agree with you. This is definitely an example of "you get what you pay for". I've had mine in place ofor a couple of years now and it's still solid and rattle free. I use it more than anything else. I've never changed a diaper on it though:tearsofjoy:

I finally after much research and bank account reviews went with the Outdoor Adventures table. Too many good reviews, ease of installation (though I can't believe any are too hard vs a trail mech failure) and it looks clean. Was also looking at the RSE one as well.
