Hey all,

Having a difficult time finding a headache rail and rail combo for my 2018 Colorado (Short Box). Been looking everywhere for something like the attached picture (without the ladder rack add-on on the back). Funny enough the co that makes the one pictured doesn't make one for a Colorado. Hoping for something pre-made that I can just order online and doesn't have to be fabbed. Located in Canada, so US-only manufactures likely won't be practical.

You can definitely get a headache rack. I looked at them. Not sure about with the rail system. Remember the Colorado have the funky rear stake bed holes at the back of the bed.

I just looked up Magnum Manufacturing. They really seem to make a nice product and the rails are a $100 upgrade with the headache rack.

I read it initially as a $100 upgrade, but when I added the feature...it is $100 off and the upgrade is approximately $300.

Yeah they changed the deal from about a month ago. Now it is a $100 off

Magnum is a great company. Made right here in the State of Maine. Expensive, but they are the best.

Would a tool box fit with the rails? I added a tool box recently and I am interested in the rails option.

Q: Does a Magnum® headache rack work with a tool box?
A: Yes, in most cases depending upon the overall width of the tool box. On the Magnum® website, listed under the rack that fits your vehicle, there is a link to view the rack spec image. That shows the overall width of the rack. Your tool box would need to be approximately ½” narrower than this measurement to comfortably fit.
