I bought DEEPDREAM SBR16UU Bearing Blocks as part of my camper van equipment.
The roof-storage drawer made guided movement an important part of my hardware purchases. These linear bearing blocks are a separate movement-system component in that purchased kit.
Separating Linear Bearings from the Drawer-Slide Assembly
I built the timber storage drawer and fitted its plywood base.
I added the rubber lining before attaching drawer slides between the box and cabinet.
My separate movement-hardware purchases included SBR16UU bearing blocks for supported linear rails.

My Takeaway from This Job
The drawer photos show a slide-mounted box, while the bearing purchase belongs to a separate motion-system format. All three block sets below use the open SBR16UU arrangement, making housing dimensions and mounting-hole layout the comparison points.
Linear bearing blocks and the photographed drawer slides are separate motion formats.

Open linear bearing
The bearing block travels on the corresponding supported linear rail, so the two parts need a shared layout. Show the rail position, block spacing and the component attached to the block before planning the surrounding enclosure. For a van sliding mechanism, the moving assembly also needs clearance along its full path. Keeping the exact bearing-block identity with the rail reference makes the parts record clearer than treating every small linear-bearing housing as the same component.
Keep the corresponding rail identity, block spacing and moving-assembly outline in the same drawing.

Two Alternatives to Compare
Both alternatives use the SBR16UU open-bearing format. The housing dimensions and mounting-hole layout are the useful comparison points between these separate block sets.
