Best wood floor to buy?
 
I'm looking to buy a new wood floor kit for my 1985 short step! What company would you guys recommend? Thanks

I am planning to use Classic Parts, but open to suggestions. Plan to buy mine in the next couple weeks

I'm curious on this as well, my bed simply can't last another year.

If i ever decide to swap out for new wood I'm going with the southern yellow pine like factory. Brothers had it and with a price that seemed reasonable.

I cant remember what I paid for the oak floor in my 75 from Mar-k.

How was the fit for your mar-k oak you used in your 75? I was thinking of going with there oak wood for my truck.

Just installed my wood on Saturday
I'm pretty happy with it
Total cost for the wood and Poly $160.

Do you still have the board dimensions handy by chance? My bed came with no wood at all, and I'm having trouble finding the dimensions online.
