A generally horizontal load bed is provided including a longitudinal marginal edge and a plurality of cantilever support arms are spaced along the marginal edge of the support bed and pivotally supported therefrom at one set of corresponding ends of the arms for angular displacement of the arms relative to said load bed about upstanding axes for swinging between extended positions with the other set of corresponding ends of the arms projecting outwardly from the load bed marginal edge and folded positions with the arms generally paralleling the load bed marginal edge. An elongated extension panel assembly is provided and parallels the load bed marginal edge and overlies and is supported from the support arms. Pivot structure pivotally supports the longitudinal marginal edge of the extension panel adjacent the load bed from the arms for swinging between an operative horizontal position overlying the arms when the latter are extended and an inoperative vertical position disposed immediately outwardly of the arms when the latter are in the folded positions, the pivot structure also serving to interconnect the support arms for simultaneous and equal swinging thereof between the extended and folded positions thereof.
