Handy New Way To "Lengthen" Pickup Bed PICKUPS Accessories 25-2-8 Hottest new accessory for pickups is the "Bed X-Tender" û a pivoting metal enclosure that adds 2 ft. to the bed of your truck by closing in the space over the tailgate.
When you don't need the X-Tender, you simply flip it up into the bed of the pickup and close the tailgate. In that position it gives you a 2-ft. wide enclosed area behind the tailgate for times when you don't need the whole bed of the pickup. Keeps small loads - like gas cans, chemical jugs, or even groceries û from sliding around.
A pair of brackets attaches permanently to the truck bed wall. The X-Tender quickly slips in or out of the brackets, as needed. Made out of aircraft-grade aluminum, the lightweight bracket weighs just 10 lbs.
Models are available to fit both full-size and compact trucks. Sells for $159 and is available through a variety of outlets, including J.C. Whitney.
