Lightweight Stock Rack

Lightweight Stock Rack LIVESTOCK Handling 17-1-9 Here's a nifty way to make a lightweight stock rack that's easy to remove from the pickup and folds up flat for storage. Erich Cochran, New Carlisle, Ohio, needed a way to haul hogs to the local locker plant with his pickup. He decided to do the job with full-height stock panels. Panels were cut to fit the inside of the box. Corners are wired together in several places. Side panels are stapled to 2 by 4's bolted to the top edge of the box. The rack stands by itself and works well for loads of small animals. To remove, Cochran simply takes out the bolts and folds the rack flat.
