Default Back Racks

Hello All

I just picked up a 2016 XLT 302a Sport with the 3.5 Ecoboost and a 5.5 box.
I have two questions does anyone have a back rack on there 5.5' bed and how do you find the stake pockets?

Thanks and sorry if this has been asked I tried to search it.

Do you need the stake pockets for a back rack?
I thought they just clamped to the side bed rails?

The rack uses the front stake pockets to bolt onto.

Third video down on this page shows details - they also have a special router type bit for clearing out the front hole space.
