ABSTRACT:
A truck bed extension is provided for extending the useful length of a pickup truck bed. The truck bed extension includes a pair of transversely spaced sidewalls interconnected by a spacing member, with each sidewall coupled to a downwardly extending mount having an inwardly oriented pin, whereby the pins are substantially opposed and collinear. The pins are positioned for receipt into openings in the tailgate housing latches. When the truck bed extension is lowered, the pins are received into and releasably coupled with the latches. Brackets are preferably provided adjacent the forward margins of the sidewalls and oriented outwardly to receive inwardly extending posts extending inwardly from the bed walls.
