I'm looking at the same Macs rail/JCR side panel combo. On Mac's website the track it looks like they use for this kit is 1.18" wide, seems like it'll work fine to me. I like Mac's tie downs.
Yes they're compatible. You'll need our threaded stud as well. The track is required to accept our threaded stud then accept the panel. You just need a 10mm or 3/8" dia. to slip the panel over the threaded stud. If you have additional questions, give us a call at 800-666-1586.

I ordered the Macs JT system and the JCR front panel. I plan to install the macs track on top of the jcr bracket as they recommend doing with the mopar or other trail rail system. This way you don’t need the threaded stud. Just run the trac mounting bolt thru the track, thru the jcr bracket and into the threaded holes in the bed. If anything I may need a slightly longer 6mm bolt but I doubt it. The jcr bracket looks like it’s maybe 1/16 or 3/32” thick. I am sure there’s enough thread on the macs mounting hardware to still get plenty of thread engagement.
I’ll post pics as soon as I get it installed in a week or so hopefully.

Looking forward to pics.
I read a review on the JCR panels, writer says the Rotopax container mounts won't bolt on their side panels-- can anyone shed light on this issue, wouldn't be good for me

Ive posted this elsewhere, Rough Country MOLLE panels. I've bolted a second ammo can up to move the toolkit into and my quickfists arrived today so more organization this weekend! I did not like drilling into my bed for these, it is necessary for them to be stable.

I seem to recall one of their videos they said the Rotopax containers are too big for the side panels, but 2 will fit on the front panel.

I am running two on the front JCR panel and they work well but no dice on the side panels for me at least.

Good to know, looks great there-- I was hoping to turn the Rotopax mount 90 degrees and mount the cans sideways at the rear/side on someones' rack, still looking into it

It's a small thing, but I'm curious how the bed lights look through the various molle panels. I have noticed that some have a matching rectangular cutout for lights while others just have the molle squares everywhere.
I get asked this question sometimes about our MOLLE panels. In my opinion, the holes cut directly in front of the lights are deceiving. The lights actually angle inward toward the bed and don't shine directly forward through the holes that are cut out. The other issue is once you actually mount something on the MOLLE panels, it blocks the light. So I chose to design the panels with a full MOLLE grid for more mounting options. I also designed the panels so they are modular. You can choose to have a lower cutout for the bed outlet or if you don't have the outlet you can choose a full lower panel. This also means you don't have a useless cutout on the driver's side.

Jeremy at 813-- Do you have any pics of your side rack without the outlet cutout with Rotopax cans mounted so that they will clear a tonneau?

Agreed on the bed lights BTW...

I don't have any photos with Rotopax mounted. I have a customer in Florida that is doing it but no photos yet. I have been trying to order some Rotopax to mount but been having trouble finding them.

In case anyone would like a little more info on our MOLLE panels, they are 1/8" aluminum. One of only two brands (that I am aware of) that produce MOLLE panels in aluminum. We never use steel. We do not use secondary brackets to mount the panels. Our panels mount with or without bed rails. The CNC bends in the panels mount to the shape of the bed and the bends make them MUCH stronger than using brackets. Our panels are modular so you can run only half panels if you don't want to block the bed divider indentions. You can choose full MOLLE lower panels or a Cutout panel for the bed outlet. We offer a half Cab Side MOLLE and a modular Full Cab Side MOLLE is in production now. We also offer the only Tailgate MOLLE on the market.

Are your molle panels direct bolt on with no modification needed?

Yes! The Tailgate panel mounts into the existing holes of the tailgate. The BedSide and CabSide panels all mount under the rails or without rails directly to the bed with no extra mounting brackets using the existing holes for the bed rails. If you have the Full BedSide panels they also bolt into the bottom corner using the existing holes in the bed (see photo attached, bottom left corner beside the tie-down hoop). For maximum strength you can hard-mount the other two mounting points using Rivnuts but it is not required and the panels are still very strong.
