I have been thinking for a while about a head ace rack. and i really like shanes but i want to see some other peoples so post up pics of your head ace racks.



I want to be able to put lights on it so i dont have a light bar on the top of my truck.



Thanks guys

 

I think there are only two members with headache racks. Shane, and Dustin. I could be wrong, but that's the only two I know of.

I stand corrected.

 

search theres a guy that just posted pics of one

 

yeah i found that one i was hoping to see more

 

Gotcha covered 2 posts up^

 

yeah i think 3 of us posted at the same time

 

yeah i saw that i just dont know how it would look on my truck

 

Just curious, may be a dumb question, but what is the purpose of a headache rack?

 

to save your back window most of them have mesh in them so you can see though them

 

...and protect your roof.

 

How do they protect your roof?

 

Well the back of the roof just above the window. I have seen many people put ladders and stuff against the roof and tailgate and destroy the roof.

 

o ok thats what i was thinking i just wasnt sure what you were thinking

 

Yup that's it. One company I worked for had a Ranger and the rear roof line was shot to hell and all rusty because the people that drive it didn't give a crap about it. Pissed me off big time.

 

yeah i really like the tubing shanes is made out of

 

Shane's is my favorite.

 

The purpose (at least for our company trucks) is to use both your tail gate, and the rack as a means of transporting long materials while still being able to utilize the bed space to carry other stuff.

I personally want to make or have made a headache rack that has another head ache rack that can be moved to the rear stake pockets. Our big Duramax company truck has a setup like that, and it is great for when you gotta carry ladders, but still use the flat bed to carry other stuff.

 

yeah i just want to protect my back window and something to bolt my tool box too and something to put lights on

 

You could do something like mine to if you like it that is. not the greatest pics but you get the point

 

yeah thats to much rack for me i just want something simple but thanks Rob

 

Truck looks good Rob

 

Nothing wrong with a big rack
