Elektric Off Road Can-Am Defender HD10 HD11 Headache Rack (2016+)

In stock
The Elektric Off Road Headache Rack protects the back of the cab on the 2016+ Can-Am Defender HD10 and HD11 from cargo that shifts forward under hard braking, and turns the front of the bed into a mounting platform. MOLLE panels, a winch mount provision and light and whip mounts are built in, and the bed still tilts.
A work machine hauls loads that slide forward when you stop hard. This rack stands between that load and your cab, and gives you a solid rear structure for lights, whips and a rear winch on the job site, the trail and the dunes.
Instead of blocking the factory cargo light, the rack relocates it with an included plug-and-play extension harness and hides the old location with a cover plate. It is steel and aluminum in two-tone hammer black with satin black panels, and it bolts on with no cutting or welding, keeping the dump-bed function fully usable.
This can am defender headache rack is also a can am defender headache rack with winch provision, and it works as a can am defender rear cargo rack or back rack for can am defender builds. Its molle panel mounting puts it ahead of a basic UTV headache rack, and it belongs on any list of can am defender accessories hd10 and can-am defender hd11 accessories for owners who use the can am defender bed for work.

FAQ
Will my dump bed still tilt?
Yes. The rack is designed so the Defender bed still tilts with it installed.
What happens to the factory cargo light?
The rack relocates it with an included plug-and-play extension harness, and a cover plate hides the original spot.
Can I run a winch on it?
Yes. It has a winch mount provision for rear pulling and recovery.
Which Defender models does it fit?
Elektric lists the 2016+ Defender HD10 and HD11.
Headache rack or bed drawer?
The headache rack protects the cab and mounts gear upright. The HDX Sliding Bed Drawer organizes tools low in the bed. Many owners run both.
Why Elektric Off Road
Elektric Off Road (Elektric Offroad Designs) builds platform-specific UTV parts, including bumpers, rock sliders, roof racks, billet sway bar links, tie rods and radius rods. They're designed around the machine they fit rather than adapted from a universal part. For the Can-Am Defender, Elektric builds front and rear bumpers, rock steps, a headache rack and a sliding bed drawer, so the parts are designed to work together on one work machine.
Protect Your Defender Cab and Mount Your Gear
Confirm your model is an HD10 or HD11. Plan your lights, whips and winch, and pair the rack with the HDX Sliding Bed Drawer for storage below.
