A drawer assembly is provided for mounting beneath the bed of a truck and between the truck frame rails. The assembly includes a housing with an extendable and retractable drawer. The drawer may be mounted to the rear bumper of the truck so that the drawer and bumper move together between open and closed positions. Alternatively, the rear bumper, or portion thereof, may be moved out of the way of the drawer, which can then be opened and closed. The drawer can be opened manually, or alternatively, by remote control. The drawer assembly is hidden from view when closed and provides easy access for small objects when opened.

A replacement tailgate for the purpose of elongating the pick up truck may be installed on a truck bed wherein the replacement tailgate can be unfolded in order to elongate a length of the truck bed. The replacement tailgate may have front and rear shells that are used to support objects placed in the truck bed as well as act as the new tailgate when the truck bed length is elongated. Various panels may be unfolded in order to trap objects within the truck bed when the replacement tailgate is unfolded in order to elongate the truck bed length.

A bumper reinforcement has a bracket to which a brace is attached. A radiator support member has an attachment seat. The direction of an attachment surface of the bracket to which the brace is attached is the same as the direction of an attachment surface of the attachment seat to which the brace is attached. A through-hole having a long-hole shape to cope with the variation of the distance between through-holes of the attachment surfaces is formed in the brace.

A retractable under-guard, for example for dual-purpose trucks that travel on-road and off-road, provides impact protection to other vehicles colliding with the truck, but is raised for off-road travel to avoid obstacles. The under-guard connects by a frame wrap to horizontal frame beam(s) of many different trucks and does not hang down in its retracted position to an extent that it interferes with off-road travel. For entering the road, the guard frame pivots downward to the desired position at or near the outer perimeter of the truck, and typically about half way between the truck frame and the ground in the space into which a lower vehicle would enter in a collision. Hook and pin systems, and/or impact plates, maintain the under-guard in proper position upon an impact. The under-guard system may automatically deploy above a predetermined truck speed, to ensure deployment when the truck re-enters the roads.

A device for protecting the bumper of a vehicle having an undercarriage includes a bumper protector which is connectable to the undercarriage of the vehicle. The bumper protector includes a cushion which is positionable to (1) a retracted position beneath the undercarriage of the vehicle, and (2) an extended position outwardly projecting from the vehicle. In the extended position the cushion is rotatable to an upright position adjacent to the bumper of the vehicle. The cushion protects the bumper during a collision with another vehicle or object.

A vehicle dent protection assembly includes a vehicle that has a plurality of body panels. A plurality of extension units is each removably coupled to the vehicle. Each of the extension units is actuatable between a deploying position and a retracting position. The plurality of extension units includes a set of first extension units and a set of second extension unit. A pair of barrier units is each movably coupled to a respective one of the first and second sets of extension units. Each of the barrier units is urged upwardly along the body panels when the respective first and second sets of extension units are actuated into the deployed position to protect the body panels. Each of the barrier units is drawn beneath the vehicle when the respective first and second sets of extension units are actuated into the retracted position such that the body panels are exposed.
