Headache Rack

[TheDo114]

Thanks... so according to the instructions for the Ranger, there's some drilling. But I can't tell if that is drilling the truck or just drilling the rack to make holes for the J hooks?

From what I can see in this diagram. Seems like you will only need to drill the rack and not the truck. The rack will clamp itself to the truck according to step 11.

I installed this rack recently, I like it. The drilling is in the rails of the rack, not the truck. Black textured finish DZ95070RTB dang these prices have gone up, used to be $550-600 about a year ago

Thanks... I agree, the price is a little crazy now.

Looks good, on the plus side, the extra height will help protect the antenna

Got my tires put on, lift going on Monday. Wanting to add a headache rack and toolbox to the bed to go with the molle panels. Anyone know of any companies making headache racks for the 19-23 Ranger?

Not bad, I like a more traditional rack but the curved top isn’t too bad. I would like some lumber stops however

They also have an angled rack and they have lumber stops that use the t-slot on the outside edge of the rack. The handy thing is, the stops are adjustable.
