Well folks, I got inspired to build a headache rack for my new truck after seeing the other thread on building one. I thought I would do a write up on building it, even though I don't have many pictures of the build. Ill be entirely honest I don't plan out my builds on paper besides rough sketches so I know what to buy for materials. I just simply picture it in my head, and figure out measurements and design changes as I go. I went with a fairly basic design for this one. I have built 3 headache racks for different trucks previous to this one, but I am most happy with this one. I do plan to add 2 LED lights on the bottom of the top rail to act as back up lights, work lights in the field, ect... If anyone has any questions on measurments or angles I can take them and share them on here if you would like. It is on my 2004.5 Chevy 2500HD, and has spray on bedliner for a paint on it.
