    don't think its mandatory anymore, worth the investment though for hanging chains/binders

    ^----- what he said.

    And you're in luck, I am in Calgary and I just happen to have a nice headache rack, tool boxes and everything else you could possibly need to set up for flatbedding for sale. PM me.

    Where would you put everything you need for load securement if you didn't have a headache rack?

    I had 24" tool boxes on the sides of my trucks and a 48 " L box on the trailers. PLUS, cabinet style HEATED headache racks.
