Default Ladder Rack....stake pockets

I've got a very nice aluminum ladder rack on my '06 super cab. problem is, I can't reach the front stake pockets to bolt the rack down. The rear ones were super easy by just removing the tail lights. The rack bolts from the bottom. The post goes down into the pocket, and a bolt goes in from below to hold it down. I have the rear nice and tight, but can't figure out hot to get the front bolts in. I've tried extensions, a buddy with chimpanzee arms and neither of us can reach up high enough to get the bolts in. What am I missing? I know I'm not the only one with a ladder rack that bolts thru the bottom of the stake pockets. The front ones are just in a jacked up spot...
