Here are the pics of the new headache rack I built. What do you think?

 

looks cool...nobody has an excuse to run in the back of ya!!

 

I love the aluminum look! But what about louvers? Here is mine!

 

Here is how I clamped the stacks, and fastened the toolbox with hooks. You can still see my wire cut-offs down there, lol. In case anyone is wondering, I used 2" Angle iron on top of the bulkhead, and the bedrails under the tool box, and 1.5" tube for the rack. The angle from the bedrails is 22 degrees (from 90). If anyone wants more specific dimensions, just ask and I will measure it. Let me know what you think.

 

I wanted to be able to clean the windows, lol. I drove a plowtruck with mesh in the headache rack, and I absolutely hated it. It was like my eyes couldn't focus looking through it. After a day of plowing snow I decided to just leave my window open. Like the look of louvers, but just personal preference I guess.

 

I have been wanting a headache rack fro sometime now and I like how you set yours up. Great Job!

 

Thanks. Simple, but better than clamping the stacks to the bedrails. Can never have too many lights iether.

 

I Like it but I dont like the lights in the tool box. Not that its not ok to have just to many for my liking.

 

People in cars on bumpy roads don't like them when they follow me. They say they keep hiding behind the tailgate, and act like strobes every time I hit a bump. It must be pretty annoying.

 

looks good, nice work.

 

Yeah, looks really nice. Howd you get them 3rd gen wheels to fit, wheel spacers?

 

man thats bright looks pretty good though. nice job

 

Thanks, I used 1.5" Wheel spacers. Every one I have talked to uses 2" spacers, but if you want to cut the front hubcap for the lockouts, 1.5s are better because the lockout just barely sticks out of the cap. With 2" spacers, the lockouts would be recessed under the cap. I like how they turned out though. I bought the wheels/tires for cheaper than I could buy stock tires, but the spacers were kind of spendy. Better than the old steel ones for sure!

 

VERY Nice, well done !

 

Very nice.. I like the lights on the tool box.
