ABSTRACT:
The following specification discloses a vehicle reinforcing bar that can be used with a pickup truck body. In particular, one of the members of the bar is a U shaped member having mounting plates upon which it stands in the bed of the pickup truck. A pair of angularly oriented bracing members is attached at its ends both to the cross member of the U shaped member and to the bed or wheel wells of the truck. The bracing members are pivotally attached to the cross member of the U shaped member by means of collars. The pivotal mounting permits free rotation of the bracing members around the cross member. This allows the entire brace to be folded into a flattened configuration for shipment until it is installed in a truck. Upon installation by attachment of the free ends of the bracing members to plates on the wheel wells, the bracing members become fixed relative to the cross members, precluding further rotation.
