CaliRaisedLED MOLLE side panels

Hi. I have been attempting to install my MOLLE panels for some time now. I already had to go to the hardware store to get bolts that actually fit the rubber foot. Now I am having an issue with the metal squares that go into the actual sidepanel that are used to bolt the molle panel to. Have any of you had trouble with the holes not lining up properly with the factory holes already in the side of the bed? Mine aren't lining up at all. I am almost done with this and about to just return this. I also got the front MOLLE panel for the wall closest to the cab but i cannot remove my bed bolts to bolt the panel down because my bed is rhino lined. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I dont know what to do at this point other than just returning all of this. You would think with the high price tag that comes with these panels, it would be a pretty simple install. Damn I was wrong, at least for me.

 

Every single thread I’ve read about these panels said the same thing. You’re not alone

 

Damn. you would think after all the bad, they would FIX THE PROBLEMS.

 

I have all the cali raised molle panels on my 21 and I didn't have any issues at all with the hardware or installation. I will say the bolt for the rubber boot was a bitch to figure out and get right.

There was someone else a few months back that had the same alignment issue but I think he ended up figuring it out.

My bed was also factory bed lined so it was annoying to find the threaded holes but I just used a small pick and felt around for the soft spot where the hole was. If you have a long enough L shaped pick you can poke through the back of the bed between the cab and find the area to make a hole in the lining.

Do you have pics by chance showing the alignment issue?

If your bolts are covered with lining you just need to razor blade around the bolts and peel off the lining. It does require patience.

 

I was considering getting these as well but I’m still waiting on my rocksliders from them. It’s my first order. They said 6-8 weeks and it’s looking like I’ll pick them up next weekend. That’ll be 11 weeks if they actually finish by next weekend. Based on some of the reviews I’m seeing this company is struggling to keep up with demand and quality. I also heard their return policy is a nightmare and you have to pay to ship it back. We’ll see. Hopefully you can get your Molle panels figured out…

 

Make sure to check the finish before u sign for the pick up and count the hardware in the box. Trust me lol. But the sliders are very worth it. Best in industry if u ask me

 

Thanks for the heads up.
