Why Buy a Headache Rack?

No headache rack can result in a broken window

While a headache rack can enhance the rugged good looks of any pickup truck, their most important purpose is to protect the cab and rear window from damage.  Without one, all it takes is one accidental load shift and your day is ruined. You’re left with expensive down time while the truck is repaired or, if left alone, the value of the vehicle takes a hit. More importantly, it’s a safety risk. Without a headache rack there's little to prevent some part of that load from crashing through and seriously injuring you or a passenger.

Headache racks also allow you to haul longer items in your truck bed. By adding our half or three quarter-height rear hoop your headache rack can then haul items up to 20 feet in length.

All of our headache racks are built with steel rather than aluminum making them much stronger than any aluminum headache rack on the market today. Once assembled, all headache racks are media blasted, epoxy primed, and finally top-coated with a textured black powder coat finish. This process makes our headache rack finish one of the most durable on the market. Customers also say our headache racks are among the best looking available anywhere. It's not uncommon to hear their expectations were exceeded upon opening the box.
