Truck Headache Racks

When loading up your truck’s bed, the last thing you’ll want is for cargo to bounce up or slide into the cab, resulting in potential dents and broken rear glass. Instead, invest in a premium headache rack to thoroughly and stylishly protect your ride’s bulkhead. 

RealTruck offers all the top brands, styles, and finishes, ensuring you’ll find your ideal headache rack in our extensive inventory. 

If you're having trouble narrowing down your selection, Realtruck’s knowledgeable sales staff is available tocontact seven days a week for order assistance and product inquiries.

What is a Headache Rack?

Headache racks—also known as truck cab racks—are robust alloy racks mounted to the bedrails of your pickup at the bulkhead. Positioned between the rear of the cab and the bed, headache racks help prevent impacts and damage while loading and transporting cargo, preventing broken windows and unnecessary dents. Headache racks can also be used to prop ladders, boards, and other oversized cargo over the cab, instead of past the tailgate.

Headache Rack Styles

Headache racks come in several different styles. While each shares the same basic form factor, variations in design, construction, and finish make for a wide range of appearances and suggested uses. 

Note: While not a universal feature across all brands, some manufacturers—such asBackRack—offer alternative mounting brackets for compatibility withtoolboxes andtonneau covers.

Frame

Minimalist, open-frame designs. While adequate at protecting the rear bulkhead from large cargo shifts, small debris can easily reach the rear window and cab. However, what these headache racks lack in protection, they make up for in visibility.
