Molle Panels for First Edition Roof Rack

[t3lcfe]

shoutout to @t3lcfe for the inspiration and advice on the install!

bending the panel was way more difficult than i expected.

I ended up slotting it on the end of a squat rack safety bar and using that for leverage.

You got it, bro! Your LC looks great with it
Instead of 1 suction cup as original design, I added another one for more secure/ balance. I confident to mount two 2-gal Rotopax ( fuel / fuel or fuel / water…) on 1 molle panel

Adding an additional 2 or 4 gallons of fuel using this really gets the total range and capacity to a very comfortable point.

I am looking at that Victory 4X4 Molly panel but concerned about the modification that is needed as @KoriCruiser points out above; more difficult than expected.
I have looked at the photos from Victory website and compared to @t3lcfe photos on his LC and cannot tell what I need to bend and how much.
Can someone elaborate just a little on that?
I hate to invest in this without knowing a little more and how to do it. No squat rack here
Sure wish there was a panel available for OEM rack.
Where else can you store the Rotopax if you don't have swing out tire carrier? On top of racks maybe?
Thanks!
