    Fixing up the ol truck

    I've had her two years now, and decided she has been dependable enough to warrant some mods (have one repair to do next week to). I have a truck toolbox that was free and from another truck, that I might just remove. But I am looking for a soft tonneau cover, and toolbox that would fit under it (and be easily removed for long loads), and a bed extender.

    My big question is does anyone have a bed extender and a tonneau cover? I have a Ranger with the 7' bed and just want to be able to pick up some sheets of plywood this winter.

    Thanks

          I have a ranger with a 7 ft body and a dee zee tool box across the front. I haul 4x8 plywood with out removing the tool box. They fit under the tool box and on top of the closed tailgate, no problem. I have seen short covers that fit in front of the box. For long 2 bys you would need the bed extender.

              Anybody have the flip and fold style (aluminum cage)?

              TOO many hills, and the way people drive around here I am afraid the other style makes it a projectile.

                  I have a longbed silverado and the only reason is because it was black and the other two on the lot were not. Plus this had a trailor hitch. Id rather drive something that isnt so **** long but its nice to throw a full sheet in and close the tail gate......
                  I had to scramble to get a tool box too. I was moving from Cali to VA and was in WI when the block on my monte carlo cracked (froze) might have just been a freeze plug but I didn't have time to mess with it so I traded it in. Best deal I ever got on a new car and on my trade in....
