Molle much?

Looking at Molle panels to increase storage capacity. Looking at either Rago or Cali-Raised. Both seem to have pros and cons. What I like about the Rago is that the quality seems to be top notch. Are maximized for fit and room. And they look to have abit more storage space than some of the other Molle panels out there.

The Cali Raised don't look to have the same quality behind them as the Rago. I do like how it has much more hanging space and they fill the shape of the window area nicely to maximize storage capacity. I do notice the upper area is void of 3/8" holes for quickfist mounts and such.

I do know both have a shelf option and read all the pros and cons of each. I will never have the shelf option. Most likely a roof net for soft goods.

So with all this, what are you using and why you like it over the other?

 

Bump

 

I have Rago panels on both sides in the rear. Quality is in fact top notch, great customer service.

 

I have rago sides as well both powder coated.....I added the shelf but just bare metal....

By adding a cheap cargo net tied off from the shelf to the rear seat headrests, my crazy ass chocolate lab is now confined to the cargo area......no more co-piloting for daisy.

She had easily defeated every pet barrier arrangement prior to this.

I also use the molles to store stuff.

 

I love my Rago panels, top quality.

 

Rago side panels have worked well for me.

 

I have the Ragos. They're good! I haven't put much on them yet, but they're secure and fit great.

 

What does everyone use for securing gear to the molle panels?

 

I use velcro straps mostly and some things with bungee straps.

 

How do you find the noise when you're offroad? Do you get a lot of clatter/rattle with everything strapped to the panels? It's my only hesitation so far.

 

That must be a new feature my didn’t have that. At least I’m pretty sure mine is just flat there. Of course I did snatch a set of their “blemished” ones which I can’t find anything blemished about them.

 

How much weight would you say you have/do have put on each panel? I wonder what their safe working load capacity is... mainly the screws of course

 

I've been wanting to add some molle panels for a little while now to help keep some of the "permanent" items a little more organized. But $380 USD, plus shipping + maybe duties to canada... $500+ for a pair of CNC aluminum plates? I just can't justify it

 

+1 for Rago. I have the panels and shelf and am really happy with the fit and quality.

 

I have Victory 4x4 mollies. Very sturdy and quite.

 

What are y’all using to secure stuff ?

 

Velcro and bungie and rubber straps.

 

$358 +tax, free shipping

 

Very happy with the Cali-Raised panel I have on the driver’s side. Moved the fire ex. up a bit higher since this first pic. Really like the lower mounts over the wheel well.

 

Ooh that extra area IS nice, otherwise it's sorta wasted unless you've got a "bulky" item that sits in that wheel well tray - even so, now you can place something there as the base and still strap to panel for security

Edit: Their solution aint so affordable either. Blahhh

 

Guys and Gals, thanks for all the input. I have decided to get the Rago molle panels. While more than I want to spend, it will be nice to have all the items that are currently in bins, accessible and out of the way.

 

It’s worth it, you won’t regret it!

 

I am Using the rago panels. They are super steady and are right to the windows. I have about 6 molle pouches on each side that carry stuff I use everyday.

 

I am using a combination of zip ties and velcro, with some limited bungee cord use

 

I'm waiting on the delivery of a pair of OrangeBoxx molle panels.

 

Hope you have good luck with them, some reviews about getting them have been pretty wild, plus they seem to have had issues with their powder coat. Be sure and report back!

 

A little late for me at this point, but where are you seeing the negative reviews? I've tried several different search terms on this forum and come up empty. Google reviews did not have anything very concerning.
Orangeboxx's shipping seemed excessive, but accepted it in order to get the project moving.

 

I went with Alpha Foxtrot molle panels. I really liked the predrilled tapped holes especially for Quickfist. Sometimes I run the shelf and sometimes I don't. The price was under $500 shipped and in stock. I like being able to get my hand behind the panels and its an easy place to store stuff.

 

Beautiful setup!
Ryan.

 

I run the victory 4x4 which I got barely used second hand. I like em, the fitment could be a bit better as I felt that things didn't line up that well and had to be massaged into fitment and place. But once installed they are sturdy as can be and I couldn't beat the second hand sticker price.
