Need truck accessory for AC transport
#1
My AC will fit in the back of my Toyota Tacoma Ext Cab but it pushed right against the rear window, I saw a steel guard that bolts to the box that is used to protect the window. Does anyone know what these are called, where I can get one and how much they cost? Any input would be appreciated.

Yeah, the others are right. They are called headache racks, and are available in many different styles for various makes and models of pickups. I can't remember for sure what the prices are, as they vary from manufacturer, but I think they are around a couple hundred dollars. They will stick out a little over 2" or so in the bed, which may lead to pushing the 'Cat back a hair, and further cause tailgate closing problems on the Toyota. I don't know for sure how long your bed is, it may not be a problem. DeZee, Putco and Westin make them, and I believe SteelHorse as well. Let me know if you can't find one anywhere in your area, or if you're interested in a definate price. I work for a farm supply store which sells a ton of this stuff, and could look into it for you if you would like.
I'm not certain, but I think Napa, Al's, or Shucks may have them, or be able to order them. Oh, if you have a Les Schwab tire company near you, they can get them too, as well as some of the farm supply stores such as Big R, D&B, Tractor Supply Company, Ranch and Home, some trading companies as well.
Can you weld at all? If so, I think you should be able to build one for considerably cheaper than what it would cost to buy one. Then you could make it exactly like you want. Just a thought.
Anyway, hope that helps, good luck with the search.
