The wood usually sets in top of the side flange and under the tub flange. How did you set this up? Not a knock but just trying to wrap my brain around it. Keep up the good work!

when the tubs get bolted down the rubber presses tight against the wood to seal

the box is alot stronger with the checker plate on the bed sides and that way i dont have to lift the bed to replace the wood if it rots
