52 F-7 or is it an 86 F-250 or maybe a 68 f-350???

Anyway bought 6 new tires, Goodyear take offs for my truck and what a difference in the ride. Working on retrofitting the 68 flatbed to it, I.E. making it longer and need help locating the aluminum H strips that go in between the wood on the floor. As you can imagine they are in the form of an H and help to hold it all together. Hope I am clear. Any idea where I might locate new and longer ones? Thanks

A metal supply place should have those I would think.

Tried local metal shops, no luck, numberdummy, looks like you are saying it cant be found???
If I have to I will just use angle iron between the boards back to back welded, wont give me the H but will keep the boards seperate and in line, sorta liked that alum. look though.
