A truck rack is basically a metal frame that attaches to a pickup truck behind the rear of the cab. Its primary purpose is to prevent items in the bed of the truck from going through the rear window during a sudden stop. Truck racks are most often used on working trucks that regularly carry cargo, although they frequently appear on passenger trucks for cosmetic purposes. They also serve as a platform upon which to hang equipment such as ladders. Accessories for truck racks include emergency lights and louvers.
Overview
Magnum truck racks are available in four profiles, including standard profile, low profile, high profile and service profiles. Most models are customized for a particular truck to ensure the best fit without overlapping the truck’s body lines. However, service-profile racks are sold in generic sizes.
Our truck racks are made from aluminum due to its light weight and durability and are constructed with MIG and TIG welds. Each truck rack is equipped with a glide track for maximum versatility and ease of installation. They’re also compatible with our full line of truck rack accessories.
