The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - Need some help with spacing of bedwood supports on a short bed stepside

The picture shows my 1969 stepside short bed. The bedwood and most of the underlying support structure was already gone when I bought the truck... So, guessing where the steel bars supporting the bedwood should be placed is not that easy. I would greatly appreciate if someone would be so kind and help me measuring the distances between the holes in the bedwood on a short stepside bed. It's most important to get the distances from front to rear, but also side to side would be valuable. Maybe it's easiest to make a simple sketch and take a picture of it. Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance!
