Wondering about a couple things - first ths is the 2008 model with single kickstand.

1. Can you mount a Pletscher double kickstand on it or are there mounting point issues?
2. Is there anything like wideloaders that is compatible with the Ute?
1. No
2. No. Some years ago a woman who had a Ute flexed a PVC rod between the rack and was able to hook several smaller panniers on it.
