Asked by johndqjr Jan 06, 2007 at 05:58 PM about the 2001 Dodge Dakota SLT Club Cab RWD

Question type: General

I want to know the best way to attach tiedowns to the rails of the truck bed.  The bedliner covers the rails and I can't see, and don't even know, if it has stake pockets or not.  I might want to put a tonneau cover on later and would need something that wouldn't interfere with that.
Is there a way to do this without drilling, and can I even do it since the rails are covered?????

Hello, I am not sure exactly how to attach these rails, but you can call a place such as auto parts warehouse and have them walk you through it. Here is a link to their rails: http://replacement.autopartswarehouse.com/parts/autopartswarehouse/wizard.jsp?year=2001&make=DG&model=DAKO-SLT_EXT_4-003&category=All&part=Bed%20Rails&dp=true Best of luck!
