Hey James,
The mounting brackets for the etrailer Over-The-Cab Truck Ladder Rack # e78FV would sit in the same space on the bedrails that the headache rack mounting brackets would need so you wouldn't have enough space for one. You could see if a local fabrication company could weld something thin and short enough together with some mounting brackets that run down between the cab and bed and then run a bolt through the brackets and bulkhead to secure it.
