Rago Molle Panels + Shelf = Organized Cargo Area

[frankdux]

Having had the Rago molle panels and shelf for a few months, I've got the cargo area organized the way I envisioned it being. It definitely feels good to know where things are at all times.

I hope this inspires some ideas for you all! Cheers.

Nice.

Nicely organized! I have been considering these for quite a while. I like how it keeps you cargo area so open and unobstructed. The bigger, heavier items do you have strapped to the panels in some fashion to keep them from moving around? Like the tank for example?

Thanks for the comments!

The Power Tank is affixed to a bracket it came with -- and that bracket in turn is affixed to the M.O.R.E. Power Tank mount, which bolts into two locations in the rear left cargo area. Also, the Safe Jack is strapped into the molle panel to keep it from falling off the ledge that it's sitting on.

Very nice setup! I want to do something very similar on mine, this Rago system is on my short list of mods to add soon.

Is the height of the shelf adjustable?

yes you can set the height of the shelf as low or as high as the side panels are

Awesome installation man. I just received the orange box panel set and now wish I would have gone in for the Rago fabrication option. Any idea if the top system would work on OB panels?

Also, how are you securing all the stuff on the racks. I'm looking at velcro straps for these panels but would love your thoughts on what's the best from a security and rattling perspective.

Wow that is extremely organized, makes great use of the space, nicely done

Looks great, mine seem like an ever evolving work in progress. I don't want to admit how much I have invested in Molle bags at this point trying to find the perfect puzzle for them.

 

[macscac]

curious as to the need of 2 tow straps?
is it for distance? or have you been in a situation that needed 2 separate straps to recover?


also, coronavirus veteran? hahahahaha!!!
please do tell where you found that

One is snatch strap, should have more stretch than the tow strap.

The OP makes me feel bad about my own back end... [emoji25]

This looks awesome. Are you able to park in a garage at night? I have thought about this setup and I am hesitant because my wife gets the garage and the space for my runner is filled by all my bikes. I’d be scared of someone breaking my window and stealing everything. Maybe I’ll get it and one load up when I’m heading out for a few days.

can't see thru the windows with molle panels attached. no one will see inside very well

Thanks for the comments! I can't say for sure if this shelf would work on the OB panels -- only one way to find out, haha! As for the items up on my shelf, they're coming into contact with the headliner and are kind of "squeezed" in there, so they won't be coming loose any time soon. The items on the side panels are secured a number of waysm either through nite-ize gear ties, velcro straps, bolts/nylock nuts, or a combination thereof.

The prior poster was correct -- one is a tow strap, will not flex whatsoever and is intendned solely for towing, while the other is a dynamic snatch strap and intended for recovering a stuck vehicle and not meant for towing.

Yes, I'm garaged every night. Even though we live in a very low crime area, I'd still be a nervoud wreck if I wasn't. Sounds like it's time for some garage re-arranging for you!
