I admit it.  I’d love to improve my table situation in many ways.  But I totally can’t picture this mod.
It sounds like it makes the table swivel better and that would be a good thing.  My table also tends to rattle in the holder when driving.  Maybe that is helped by this as well?

I have two good condition tables. 

Currently I just use the rear table and have removed the other leg holder. 

I feel like the table is much heavier than it needs to be.  The whole unit could be much lighter.  Maybe a stainless steel top. And a built in drawer and have a leaf so it can slide together to be smaller or bigger. 
I thought Van cafe had an updated table but when described to me it is just a drawer for under the existing table.  Heck, that I could probably make myself.
