Does this mount in the stake pockets or must I drill holes in my bed?

It does not mount into the stake pockets, it comes with bolt clamps. I purchased stainless bolts, drilled holes and installed with out the clamps. The rack is heavy and very well built.

drill holes in the bed, for the supplied mounts. different mounts could get you the results in stake pocket mounting

It does not mount in the stake pockets. You have the option of drilling into the truck and using bolts and nuts, or you can use the supplied j-bolts which require no drilling. The j-bolts are the option I went with. It is very secure. You may want to trim the bolt after tightening as they do stick up above the bed rail about 1.5 inches.

It will mount in the pockets, but it is best to drill holes for extra security. It is a well built item and we have had to trouble with it all.

No. It has j bolts to hook under rails. I drilled it to insure secured. Nice rack

There are stake holes for tent stakes. When we use it on our deck we secure it with these on windy days. It is so easy to put up we don't leave it up all the time.

I used a bed frame and just a mattress it worked realy nice. But the holes didn't match up so I did have to drill my own holes on the bed frame and I drop the mounts on the head bord a few inches lower. With a electric drill was know problem. Hope this helped

I think stake holes are pretty universal. I have a 2010 Silverado. That's where I put mine. I had to play with it for a bit to figure out it did work, just required a little muscle.

No as sand is so porous. Stake needs to be put in dirt or grass areas. Hope this helps.

No, it is mounted in wallboard or vanity by cutting out a prescribed hole and using the back plate which is included in kit. As you tighten the screws the back plate compresses against whatever wall you are installing it in which holds the holder in place.

No you must drill holes in frame rail and mount it there or somewhere similar.

I have a 4"X4"X4' redwood stake equipped with a lath screw that I can place just about anywhere. I just place the water heater on the screw and am ready to go. The unit is so light that this approach works. I travel with all of my attachments "attached". Takes a few minutes to dig a hole and I am ready to go. I would think that the attachment screw could be to a camper instead; just make certain that the heat deflector is properly oriented away from the camper.

I didn't pre-drill but I did screw the rails into the frame. The reason being, the only thing holding the rails in place would be the weight of the bed. They would eventually move around on you and wouldn't support the mattress properly as intended.

It attaches to a bed frame with predrilled holes. It would depend on the foundation you're using if it would work or not.

It has holes for stakes to go in but I never used them. You might need to use string and stakes

You push it into your ground with your feet. There is a place near the bottom of the stake to do so.

No holes need to be drilled. Must have a metal bed frame for helper to attach. You may need to loosen plates to fit on the bed frame, then tighten. Good luck!

It comes with front and rear holes for the factory bed stake holes. These look great on my truck and no more worrying about scratches.

This is a good question and one I wish I asked before I purchased this drill. The answer is yes, you can mount a drill but it's not from underneath the steel plate that comes with the unit. It's under the slots that make the X in the plate. I have mounted a vise to this drill pres but it is a pain and isn't easy to get lined up the way I want. I often check websites where people sell used tools trying to find someone with a broken press they want to off load cheap so I can take the table off of it. However, with that said, I love this drill. This is the only complaint I have about this drill press.

stake is removable. there are no mounting holes on the back but it does have a mounting tab on the top so it can be hung from a screw or hook.

I mounted them to the inside of the bed by drilling holes through the side rails them used the bolts provided. They works best if you mount them where the stake hole in the bed is located. Good luch I hope this helps.
