I saw in his first post that the floor had been replaced with oak plywood, I was curious if the "wear strips" were installed. I didn't realize the panels had plywood for bed wood originally. sorry if I was unclear on what I was asking, I was trying to get at the wear strip issue.
so the wear strips do or do not have holes in them that bolt to the cross sills and re-enforcement strips like the "pick up" trucks?? is the re-enforcement strip aligned by holes in the wear strips?

by hateful, I mean short and almost like you are annoyed by the questions. you have stated several times that you have already answered the OP's questions on another forum, but that does no good in sharing the info here. don't take it personally, I'm not trying to be an ass....sometimes it is hard to get a read on people though their typing...
