A close up of the factory installed mount pads. Had to make sure these didn't get pryed off while sliding it down the rail.
The particular setup was 1 to 1 on leverage so It didn't work just pulling on the rope.
The plate didn't slide easy...so I thought I'd attach a pulley to the bench. I used a single pulley and a bike hanger. Screw in type.
Starting to slide it down the rail was the hardest part. As the plate went from flat to sloped. A little more lifting than I wanted.

There are mounting pads on the bottom of the plate. These had to fit between the rails. I had to keep adjusting as I slid it.
Another view of the rails on the stand. The mounting screws are turned down below the level of the sideways 2x4s
A view of how the rail looked attached to the ledge on the pallet.
