UPDATED: The Solution, and nearly perfect.
My use will be grocery panniers and I bought a Topeak cargo net for the occasional PIZZA!
Got pictures of your solutions and links?
This will work, (Thanks to Derek Monroe YouTube for verifying it on his bike.)
In my experience, there was very little "bending" just a nudge to the right as tightening the 4 fastener points using a plastic wedge.
Axiom Mk 3 Alu Journey Uni-Fit Cycle Rear Rack. $64.99 (Do not buy the "FAT" UNI model as it is too wide to work.)

OK, today was the SCRAMBLER's rear rack!
The fit on the Scrambler is nearly easy. I only needed to get a couple of longer side plate bolts to mount the rack arms to the top front inside location.
Instructions are lower right side uses #27 hole on longest included brackets and go's into the topmost unused pre-threaded hole on the frame. The left side uses the #29 hole into the existing rear axle retention plate (torque plate) using the stock bike bolt. Next, you extend both rack bars to your side plates inside top forward, you will need to slightly longer stainless bolts about $3 at the hardware store. I used plastic wedges to align the rack to the center (pushing right) and an SAE 1/4 12 point wrench to hold the proper hex bit due to clearance. Seems rock solid and uses all tough stainless bolts. Axiom claims 100 pounds of freight use.
I highly recommend you use blue Loctite on all fasteners except the left side lower as you will need to remove the "torque plate" anytime you fix a flat or remove the rear wheel. You could use purple "low" Loctite however.
