Australia’s Original Molle Panel System
Our molle panel system has been around since 2020, first introduced for the PX Ford Ranger.
Manufactured from Australian Standard steel in Western Australia and powder coated in a tough three stage process, this durable panel provides multiple mounting options with a series of pre-cut holes, slots and cutouts. The panels allows you to secure your 4WD and camping accessories easily in the tub, without using bulky and heavy drawer systems.
RAM1500 Molle Panel Installation
Unlike some other vehicles, RAM 1500 has no bolted tie-down points in the lower corner or near the wheel arc. Supporting the molle panel only at the top is not sufficient, so the installer needs to drill one additional hole , slightly rearward of the wheel arch and fit either a thread insert or bolt.
This is the only hole that needs to be drilled with the panel secured elsewhere using existing holes.
Currently the AusMotion molle panels are only compatible with RAM1500 vehicles that have the RAM tie-down rails installed, such as the TRX.
Vehicles without the RAM tie-down bars will be added to the range at a later date – Please contact us to register your interest.
Fully Engineered, Rated Capacity
Our Hilux molle panels have been fully engineered, including FEA stress analysis of the panel and mounting components – This is what sets our panels apart from other brands.
The rear panel section is rated to support 15kg vertical loading.
You can confidently strap jerry cans and other items to the panel, safe in the knowledge that it wont suffer permanent deformation or damage.
