Rack system for securing cargo in pick-up truck beds

A removable rack system for a pick-up truck bed has a bored panel (such as pegboard) to which retractable pin securements may be joined for lashing cargo to the panel. Footers on the panel keep the panel spaced off the truck bed. Sets of locking wedges brace the panel within the truck bed. The locking wedges at one end contact side edge of the panel and at the opposite end contact the truck bed sidewall. The lengths of the locking wedges are adjustable to force fit the panel within the truck bed without need for fasteners or fixtures that penetrate into the truck bed floor or truck bed sidewalls. The opposite ends of the locking wedges may be configured for joinder to a projection (such as a D-ring) extending from the truck bed sidewall.
