Let's see some pics. I'll probably build my own. Looking for ideas. I'm also trying to figure out how to install with an Access soft cover. Thanx.

rolloffhill 09-20-2006, 10:11 AM More pics in my garage...was made by a local welding shop that makes them for a hauler conversion upfitter. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/garage_images/i15892.jpg jdugie123 09-20-2006, 10:21 AM here is mine has the caps and rails integrated i put full LED's in it the brake lights were easy to find but the reverse lights took some time to find ones i really liked got them off Ebay they are super brights duramaxdavid 09-20-2006, 10:45 AM Kind of a bad picture but you get the idea. There is enough room on the inside of the rails to mount a soft cover.

I've been told my truck looks like a moving billboard at nite :D -- RIck Vege-Taco 09-20-2006, 06:10 PM OK, what is a headache rack for? When I get a headache all I want is a cool, dark and quiet room with a bed. :eek: Turfmower 09-20-2006, 07:45 PM OK, what is a headache rack for?

When I get a headache all I want is a cool, dark and quiet room with a bed. :eek: Whenever I have to haul an extension ladder around or 20ft joints of pipe around, my 6ft bed just doesn't cut it. I just lay it up on my headache rack, stap it down, and take the stuff to the job. It also keeps my back seat cooler since it acts as a sunshade. Jeli 09-21-2006, 09:29 AM cant see it working with an acess cover unless you had a toolbox edition and toolbox I'm thinking that too but I haven't put a lot of thought into it yet. Ruben Z 09-21-2006, 09:40 AM For those of you that have them or have seen them made. What thickness of Square Tube do they use? I want to make my own but all I have is 2" square tube in 1/8" thick and I think that is too heavy for a headach rack? duramaxdavid 09-21-2006, 11:09 AM I cant remember what size mine is but its the same thing your hitch is made of. duramaxdavid 09-21-2006, 11:10 AM cant see it working with an acess cover unless you had a toolbox edition and toolbox Alot of the new covers dont take up the whole rail but just the very edge. Ive got over an inch of rail left on the inside. Plenty of room for a cover. nekkidhillbilly 09-21-2006, 09:55 PM well it wont work with a extang or truxedo i have had both it covers tha back rail neversatisfiedmoto 09-22-2006, 11:03 PM you can usually pic up a black powder coated Bak RACK for around $250 I know i wouldnt mess around with building my own for that kind of money and the back rack will work with many covers TRUXEDO lo pro, and some access covers vwmurph 09-23-2006, 11:32 AM Does anyone have any pictures of the BackRack safety rack mounted on there truck.
