Default Safety Rack By Back Rack

Anyone ever have on in a ranger? Do you have to drill holes? I would assume they cover the stake pocket. I am looking for a cab protector for my ranger when loading firewood. I love the protech one but the price is kinda high then i would still have to paint . The weatherguard one is a universal fits nothing.

Not with the brackets i got. But thy do make toolbox brackets though. No drilling. It bolts down thru the stake pockets. Now i just have to make matching bed rails and find bed caps.

Yesterday i made up matching side rails. Have 4 "hooks" per side on the outside and 2 "d"rings per side on the inside. I mimicked the Safety racks mounts for the rear and welded the rails to the front mounts. Having some 3/16 diamondplate bed caps bent up as we speak.
What do ya think?
