If I was bolting the angle strips to the bed sides, I would use button head bolts with the nuts outside the bed. Locate the first bolt so the nut is inside the stake pocket. You should be able to reach the nut from the bottom of the pocket. The rest of the bolts would be located so the nuts are inside the fenders.
Just for fun, here's a before photo:
