Really enjoying this forum, so much creativity here! Thanks for sharing, Jay!

This build addresses a few wishlist utility items for me: (1) a handhold for when stepping onto the tailgate; and (2) additional storage.

I have no financial relationship with www.bestrestproducts.com, but it is where I purchased the Great Loop motorcycle panniers and quick mount panel. I also have their first aid kit in the truck. They have been a high-quality company to purchase from.

The copper pipe bracket is 1/2 inch type “L” (thickest) copper pipe that I sweat welded together and then attached to the Urander rack’s awesome Molle panel rear doors. The brackets are made from 1/2 inch stub-outs cut down to 2 inches in length with an 8-inch 1/2 inch diameter piece of copper pipe held together with 2 90-degree copper elbow fittings. (In my experimentation I tried different lengths on the stub-outs and settled on 2 inches because it allowed for the pannier feet to insert into the Molle panel while still allowing the top clasp to “clasp” my fabricated copper bracket. If a person were to cut some rungs out of the Molle panel it would be possible to get the pannier even closer than 2 inches but I didn’t want to alter my Urander rack.

Having 2 panniers provides 50 liters of additional storage that you can quickly mount and secure or remove as needed. And the copper brackets make for a nice handhold whether the panniers are mounted or not.

Happy trucking, Cybertruck enthusiasts!

Wait, what is that on the right at the front of the rack? I am thinking it is a Starlink Gen3 wedge-mount High Performance dish....right?

I have the HP Gen 2 with the integrated pole on it. I got a good deal for it brand new for $500 on Ebay (the newer Gen 3's like on his truck run about $2,500). I plan to mount it from it's pole securely attached to two Urandar rack cross bars behind my 10" tall Topoak Vision XL RTT, with the top of the dish level about the same height at the 10" tall top surface of the RTT, so it shouldn't add any more wind drag that isn't already there from the RTT.

I still need to move the RTT forward to make room for it, and rearrange the crossbars to do it, but just haven't yet due to bad weather and short daylight hours....and trying to fit it all in with other real-life reponsibilities which require me to drive the CT without it being in a state of rearrangement....

I also plan to make some sort of angled wind deflector in front of the RTT to reduce wind drag from a 10" tall by 46" wide brick on the top of the rack. Not sure what I'll do yet...either repurpose/MacGyver something that already exists, or build something from scratch....not sure yet....
