Rough Country's F-150 Headache Rack gives your 2015-2026 F-150 a functional, aggressive upgrade that protects your rear glass from shifting cargo, tools, and equipment without requiring any drilling into your truck's bed. Built from heavy-duty 2x3 rectangular steel tubing and finished in a gloss black powder coat, this rack handles jobsite duty and trail use equally well while adding a purposeful look to any F-150 configuration.
Bolt-on installation with no permanent modifications. The rack mounts directly to your factory stake pockets, locking in place with a reinforced mounting system that holds firm under load and rough terrain. No drilling means your factory finish stays intact, and removal is just as straightforward if needed.
Optional Molle panel integration for serious organization. This rack is available with or without dual integrated Molle panels. Configured with panels, you gain approximately 3 square feet of usable accessory mounting space per panel, giving you a systematic way to carry recovery gear, trail tools, fuel packs, and other essentials directly on the rack rather than buried in the bed.
Rear glass stays protected; third brake light stays visible. The rack's geometry shields your rear window from cargo impact while the precision design keeps your third brake light fully unobstructed for safe, legal road use. Both requirements are met without compromise.
