I went with the factory measurements. I don't remember each measurement due to several boards being a different width, and I did all of it over a year ago. The length depends on whether you have a long or short bed. Mine is a long bed, and I remember having to get 10 foot long boards because the 8 foot boards were a couple inches too short. It should be easy to find them in the FAQ section of this forum. That is where I found it the first time.
The wood I used was just some Pine from Home Depot. I would recommend using something a bit nicer/more expensive, and make sure that you get planks that are not warped. At some point I will have to do it again, but that will be in a few years when I can afford some nicer wood.
