My '05 has the access covers. I pop them out and in all the time when tying down stuff with bungees or ratchet straps.

 

Yep Eastrick, your Supercab with steel outerskin and railtop would.
bear_catt has a Supercrew with fiberglass skin and no access hole covers.

This site says this will fit a Supercrew:

I don't quite understand what you mean here. What exactly is "fiberglass"? Did they make the Screws (and the 5.5' bed Scabs) unable to accept racks or anything else in the places where stake pockets used to usually reside?

 

As I understand it, the outerskin of the beds on the Flareside and Supercrew are fiberglass or some composite other than steel.

This would include the rail top on both sides.
The bed wall against the cab would be steel as is the tailgate and the inner walls of the bed.

A magnet would tell you whats what.

As far as stake pockets go, a hole isn't necessarily a true 'stake pocket' at least the way I've used them.
I just don't want bear_catt to drop the leg of his 'built' rack in the hole and say 'WTF?'

 

On my 05 XLT they pop right out!

 

Looking at the detailed drawings (at the link I posted yesterday) it looks like the 5.5' Styleside bed has no stake pockets - only the 6.5' and 8' beds do.

My '04 FX4 is a 6.5' bed, and it has pockets - but looking back through the thread I don't see what length bed bear_catt has (I may have missed it). If he has the 5.5' bed I don't think he has stake pockets.

I use a single Yakima clamp-on rack for the bed and a single clamp-on Yakima rack for the roof to haul a canoe, kayaks, or whatever. Works pretty good. I can position the roof rack at the front or rear of the cab as needed, and the bed rack can go anywhere along the rails.

PS - Rauol - Which end of the county are you in? I'm down in Tabb. Don't know of too many goats around this part of the York County, though I know where there are a few horses!

 

I'm up by the battlefield.

 

Oh, OK. Didn't want to steal bear_catt's thread, but realized we were probably no more than 20 miles apart. Cool ~

I'd thought about getting a 5.5' bed SCAB - if the bed bodies are fiberglass I'm glad I got the 6.5'. Not just for the stakepockets, but I like to use my truck as a truck, so I'd rather have steel over plastic.
