Hey everyone this is my first post after getting my s10. I saw the outback motortek panniers with the rotopax mounted on the inside like a year ago before I even had an s10 and knew I wanted to do that when I got one. They did there's on a gen 1 but the gen 2 has some fitment issues with the cover for the rear brake reservoir. Then I looked it up and people were saying there wasn't enough clearance for the brake caliper.I tried to make it work anyways. It doesn't sit perfectly in the center of the pannier so it isn't quite as pretty as the one on their website. Also I put a half inch drill bit on the caliper and rotopax and it's exactly a half inch clearance from the caliper. I don't do hard core riding so that's enough peace of mind for me. Some may agree others may not. Since it needed to be lower because of the reservoir cover I had to drill new holes in the x frames. The way I have it now allows it to come out pretty easy and the only annoying part is you have to completely unscrew the t handle from the mount to get it off. But that may have been unavoidable no matter what. So if you've been thinking of doing this I hope this helps. Here's some pics let me know what yall think.
