Truck rack

As promised, here are pictures of the rack that my dad and I built for my dakota. The side rails and rails behind the window are removable (sort of, screws and some considerable force might be required to get it out of the holes). I'm able to strap just about anywhere on the back of the truck now. From the factory, the dakota only has tie-downs in the floor of the bed making strapping something tall very difficult. I feel better that I won't kill someone with my stupid hobby now :)
