NEW PRODUCT: BOSS™ Open Frame Cab Rack

A Premium Cab Rack Built for Modern Trucks

The Putco BOSS™ Open Frame Cab Rack is designed for truck owners who need dependable cab protection without sacrificing visibility, bed access, or everyday functionality. Built for work trucks, fleets, contractors, and truck enthusiasts, this open-frame headache rack delivers a clean, modern look while adding the strength and utility needed for demanding jobs.

Unlike bulky traditional headache racks, the BOSS Open Frame Cab Rack uses a streamlined design that protects the rear cab area while keeping your rear window view open. Whether you are hauling ladders, tools, lumber, gear, or jobsite materials, this rack gives your truck added protection and a professional, work-ready appearance.

Strong Lightweight Aluminum Construction

The Open Frame Cab Rack is constructed from structural-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, giving it an excellent balance of strength, weight savings, and corrosion resistance. Aluminum helps keep the rack lighter than many traditional steel options while still providing the durability needed for daily truck use.

Its rugged matte black powder-coated finish adds another layer of protection against corrosion, scratches, and jobsite wear. The result is a cab rack built to handle tough conditions while maintaining a clean, factory-style appearance.

Dual T-Slots for Accessory Mounting

The Open Frame Cab Guard features a dual T-slot design. The integrated T-slots create a modular mounting system that makes it easy to add accessories such as LED light bars, work lights, strobes, and other rack-mounted gear. This added flexibility allows you to customize your setup based on how you use your truck, whether you need better jobsite visibility, extra utility lighting, or a cleaner way to mount equipment.

Easy No-Drill Bolt-On Installation

Installation is simple and truck-friendly. The BOSS Open Frame Cab Rack installs using factory stake pocket mounts, requiring no drilling, no cutting, and no separate headache rack mounting kit.

With basic hand tools, the rack can be bolted securely into place without permanent modification to the truck bed. This makes it a clean, convenient upgrade for personal trucks, work trucks, and fleet vehicles.

Built for Lighting and Work Accessories

The BOSS Open Frame Cab Rack is designed with accessory integration in mind. It is compatible with several Putco lighting products, including options such as Blade LED Light Bars, Work Blade LED Light Bars, Hornet lights, YellowJacket lights, Luminix light bars, and Luminix Mini-Block lamps.

This makes it easy to build out a truck with added jobsite lighting, warning lights, rear-facing illumination, or utility lighting. For anyone working early mornings, late nights, roadside jobs, or in low-light conditions, the rack provides a strong platform for better visibility and safety.

Putco designed the BOSS Open Frame Cab Rack to work with real truck setups. It is compatible with most inside-rail tonneau covers and standard truck bed toolboxes, allowing you to keep the bed functionality you already rely on.

That means you can add cab protection and accessory mounting without giving up your toolbox, tonneau cover, or access to your truck bed. For contractors and daily work truck users, that compatibility makes this rack a practical upgrade.
