I am an electrician and often use my taco for work which is often taking supplies and tools to jobsites. Here is my problem. I need a headache rack for work and I am looking at installing side rails. At the same time I would love to take my truck and make it a sweet off roading vehicle. Ive searched and its hard to find anyone who has attempted to make it work for both without having to always remove and switch out parts.
Looking for any advice from guys who maybe have attempted this or have any ideas. Thanks in advance!

Heres some pictures of my rig so far in its 2 natural environments
