You''ve got it in one!
Used stuff with the side rails stripped off. So I'm not sure what to buy! Its why I'm asking. Never assembled one of these before. Very comfortable with the different screw sizes but its these other parts - - - the ones that fasten to the boxes and then get bolted to the frame that are 'I'm not sure what to get' type of pieces.
Do you have a list of the equipment make/models you are trying to rack mount?
There's a Dell 2950 II server (1U) and 2 Dell/APC 3000 UPS (2U and fairly heavy).
One would think whoever took the stuff out of the rack would have enough clue to realize the equipment would be more valuable if the rails stayed with it, and the rails by themselves are totally useless.
You have it backwards. They can strip off all the stuff besides x and sell it. You will pay Y for the server then you need the side mounts (with might cost you $15 but separate its $50 or new ones at $110) and the hardware (should be about $0.75 per bolt/ cage nut combo buying by the 20# box) but you are paying $2.00 for each combo.
