Aries® 2090613 - Replacement Headache Rack Stake Pocket Anchors

Wary about purchasing something from a website I'd never dealt with before, a Philip Stone in the CARID sales department answered my pestering emails as best he could without resorting to used car salesmen BS. Looking at my choices and prices, I decided to place my order for an Aries headache rack with CARID. True to the salesman's word, my order shipped the next day. Significant because some sites promise shipment, then come up with delays. I received the order three days later in good condition. As to the Aries headache rack being easy to install on my 2021 Tacoma, it was a breeze with no drilling or cutout of the bed liner, and I am eighty years old and physically handicapped. The only shortcoming with the received order was that the attachment hardware was short two large lock washers, but they were easy to source locally. There were three extra lock washers in the package, but they were too small. Maybe CARID ought to prod Aries about doing a better job in supplying all the correct hardware.

Looks beautiful on the truck! Easy to install! The reason I'm giving a 4 Star is that after the installation. I drove the truck on a bumpy road and the headache rack was grinding on the truck. I adjusted it to now where it makes soft knocking noises on the truck(Yes, I tighten the bolt as much as it can handle). I will make adjustments when spring comes.

Had to make minor cuts to fit tighter to the cab, but all and all looks great and gives attitude! Great job Aries team!

Very good, strong and massive lock, best price.

Looks good but channels were small on one side. It would be great to have the mesh removable in the winter for snow plowing. Alumni welding looked ok but wasn’t terribly straight.

Looks great and has so many possible mounting points for light bars or lighting accessories, and a plus it is tool box compatible. The perfect combination of quality and appearance without hurting your wallet. And it got here within a week. An absolute must have.

It arrived in a decent time allotment and looks great on my 2017 2500 Dodge Ram pick-up.

This is a well built product! Came with easy to follow instructions and gave my truck a bad ass look!

Looks nice, with a couple of pant nicks, but a nice thick coat of epoxy paint. It is fairly easy to install, but doesn't really fit. They made it to be universal, so it fits nothing exactly, but that was easy to overcome by drilling my own holes in the front of the mounting bracket, so I would not be trying to bolt it to the stake hole. I have a bed rail mounted toolbox, and with some rearranging of the brackets, I was able to install it over the rack brackets, just can't follow the instructions' placement of the brackets, so some pre-fitting is required.

Received the rack very quickly. Installed easily. Excellent quality. Exceeded all my expectations. Great value and good service on the phone when I ordered it.
