The First Rack - It Is A Timeless Rack


Here's a shot of the original Rack-it truck rack from 1986. Looks great, doesn't it? It's become a timeless design that looks great on older trucks and brand new, fresh-off-the-assembly-lines trucks. It looks great on a Dodge or a Chevrolet (Chevy for most of us. . .), GMC, Ford, Toyota, Nissan, International (remember them?), and whomever else wants to build a pickup. Isn't that great? We think so.

Interesting Custom Project - Many More Available!


Here's an interesting project from Rack-it. This is a series 2000 forklift loadable rack with custom side screens and tailgate so that it can more effectively contain materials within the pickup with full visibility and yet be a very attractive solution. Just one of the untold numbers of projects we can do to make your rack custom for your work. And, the good news is that it doesn't cost a fortune for us to do it. We are essentially metal fabricators, so we can create many options. Heck, if you can draw it or even tell us so we can draw it, we can build it.

Give us a call at 800-445-7666 and let's talk about your custom project!
