ABSTRACT:
An improved device for attaching tailgate enclosures to a pickup truck. The device comprises attachment posts installed adjacent to the opposing interior sidewalls of a pickup truck. Each post has an upper cylinder, received telescopically into a lower cylinder and biased upward by a helical spring. Semi-rigid, textured plates are disposed at either end of the posts. Looped members are disposed on the cylinders, providing an attachment means for a net-type or other alternative tailgate enclosure. The posts are installed between the upper sidewall lip and the floor of the pickup bed at either side of the bed, being held in place by the force exerted on the upper plate by the helical spring.
