Vehicle cargo bed extension device

A cargo bed extension device, adapted to be secured within a rear-mounted receiver hitch of a vehicle having a cargo bed with a front and a rear, extending the hauling capacity of the cargo bed by providing support to objects extending beyond the cargo bed, the device comprising:

• a primary support bar having a first end adapted to be secured within the receiver hitch of the vehicle by a pin, a shaft attached to said first end at a first angle directed upward from the receiver hitch, and a second end, defining a secondary support receptacle;
• a first upright support member having an upper end perpendicularly attached to a first crossbar support having respective end stops and a lower end attached within a first upright support receiver depending upward from said shaft, said lower end secured within said first upright support receiver by a pin, said first crossbar support of said first upright support member located at a first length from the front of the cargo bed beyond the rear of the cargo bed at a length between eight and ten feet;
• a secondary support bar having a first end inserted within said secondary support receptacle of said primary shaft by a pin, said secondary support bar further having a shaft and a second end;
• a second upright support member having an upper end perpendicularly attached to a second crossbar support having respective end stops and a second end attached within a second upright support receiver depending upward from said shaft said lower end secured within said second upright support receiver by a pin, said second crossbar support of said second upright support member located at a second length from the front of the cargo bed beyond the rear of the cargo bed at a length between thirteen and fifteen feet;
• at least two crossbar extension chocks defining a channeled lower bracket having two bracket holes on each side of an upward projection member secured within at least two of a plurality of vertical spaced holes in each first and second crossbar support by pins;
• and
• brake lights, signal lights and running lights attached to said second upright support member, said brake lights, signal lights and running lights attaching to a wiring harness.
