Description

Take your overlanding adventures to the next level with the versatile IBEX Panel Kit. Designed specifically for your IBEX truck bed rack (sold separately), this enclosed rack solution helps protect your gear from the elements while providing enhanced security. The fully locking design ensures your equipment stays safe while still allowing easy and quick access to the truck bed when needed.

What sets the IBEX Panel Kit apart is its modularity. The all-metal construction includes two interchangeable side panels, which can be swapped with molle panels for customized storage and mounting solutions. This means you can configure your truck bed rack to fit your overlanding needs, whether you're hauling camping gear, recovery tools, or outdoor essentials. The Panel Kit includes a rear auxiliary light for enhanced safety and visibility during nighttime adventures.

Two exclusive accessories are also available for the Panel Kit:

  • Crossbar Risers for Panel Kit: Elevate your crossbars to increase roof clearance for larger cargo.
  • Interior Molle Panel: Mounted securely to the inside of the Panel Kit door, this molle panel provides a stable, secure platform for organizing gear, tools, and other essentials.

Whether you're tackling backcountry trails or need a secure storage option, the IBEX Panel Kit transforms your truck bed into the ultimate adventure solution.

IBEX Panel Kit FAQ

How easy is installing the Kuat Panel Kit on my IBEX truck bed rack?

The IBEX Panel Kit is designed to be installed directly onto your existing IBEX truck bed rack frame. No drilling is required, and all hardware is included in the box. See the Panel Kit User Guide for more information.
Do I have to purchase the entire IBEX Panel Kit (all five panels), or can I purchase them individually?

You have three purchasing options for the IBEX Panel Kit. The kit is split into two boxes: you can either buy all five panels together, purchase the two side panel doors as a set, or opt for the top, front, and rear panels as a set. Please note that the rear door and front panel require the roof to be properly assembled.
Is the IBEX Panel Kit available in a mid-height size?

No, the IBEX Panel Kit is available only for the full-height configuration of the IBEX truck bed rack.
Does the weight capacity of the IBEX change with the addition of the Panel Kit?

No. The weight capacity remains unchanged, with a static weight capacity of 1,200 lbs and a dynamic weight capacity of 300 lbs.

Does the Rear Auxiliary Light come standard with the Panel Kit?

Yes, the Rear Auxiliary Light is seamlessly integrated into the rear panel and connects to your vehicle’s electrical system.
Are there any IBEX Accessories incompatible with the Panel Kit?

Yes, due to the way the panels are installed onto the IBEX frame, several accessories cannot be used on the IBEX at the same time with the Panel Kit. The Piston SR Mounts, Grab Handle, Tonneau Cover Adapters, Molle Panels, Antenna Mount, Shovel Mount, and Crossbar Riser / Riser Kit.
It looks like there are special IBEX Accessories that can be used with the Panel Kit only.  Is that true?

Yes, if you would like to use Crossbar Risers with your IBEX Panel Kit, you will need the Crossbar Riser Kit for the Panel Kit.  We have also made special Molle Panels for the IBEX Panel Kit that attach to the inside of the side panel doors.
