Question:
I would like to use a TraRac SR on my 2019 F-150 but there are only two accessible stake holes. Is there anyway to install without cutting out front stake holes?

In order to use the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # TH43002XT-508 if you have the 5-1/2' bed, part # TH43002XT-501 if you have the 6-1/2' bed, or part # TH43003XT-000 if you have the 8' bed on your 2019 Ford F-150 you will have no other option but to cut out the other two stake pocket openings. This is actually really easy to do and well worth the benefits of the TracRac SR. I know it can be difficult to modify a brand new truck but it's just plastic after all.
If you need help cutting out the two stake pocket openings I have attached a video for you to assist. Unfortunately, this will be your only option if you want to install a sliding ladder rack on your F-150.
