A frame can include front and back generally vertically and laterally extending frame members. The frame members can each have a generally trapezoidal configuration comprising a crossbeam portion extending generally laterally between two generally upwardly and laterally inwardly extending side leg portions. A rigid, non-collapsible shell can extend over the frame that is adapted to be supported on the truck body. The rigid, non-collapsible shell can include opposite side walls and a roof extending between the side walls. A plurality of posts can be attached to the frame through the roof, with each of the posts extending externally above the roof of the rigid, non-collapsible shell. A first rack can be attached to and can extend between at least two of the posts externally of the rigid, non-collapsible shell overlying the roof.

Truck cap with heavy duty mounting rack

A cap for the cargo bed of a pickup truck has a rigid internal frame with spaced front and rear frame members connected by longitudinally extending upper side rails and longitudinally extending bottom plates, said frame being supported on side walls of the pickup truck. A lightweight shell extends over the rigid frame and is supported on the side walls of the truck. A plurality of posts are attached to the side rails and extend vertically through holes formed in the shell and have one or more storage racks attached to the posts whereby all of the weight of the storage racks and cargo supported thereon is transmitted through the internal frame and supported by the truck body. The frame members are formed of T-slotted members providing support for sundry items inside the shell.
