I had a parts truck with a fabricated floor made with the checkered plate. It was made with an angle iron sub frame that just sat over the origional floor. The floor is super nice if you want to abuse the bed a bit but way too heavy for my taste. It's a being used as a porch for my dad's workshop right now.
I believe the stock bed planks are closer to 6.25" wide by 0.75" thick but mine are so rotted it is tough to measure them. Does anyone know the dimensions? Gustave
I’m working on it, slowly, there seems to be some discrepancy, so far nothing matches my only good (?) piece @ 4 5/8 +/- (Canadian 51 f1)
Thanks for the ideas guy's, i went out and brought a sheet of ply wood and im going to put a sheet of checker plate on top of it. I found a picture in a magazine and it looked good. Maybe i will post picture's when im done.
