Re: steel floor to wood floor?
Yes. I have also seen a few that mounted the wood bed on top of the steel floor too. Didn't look too bad either. Like said above someone makes a kit to do just that, though pricy. I think to convert you need a new head board, and all the under bed braces replaced.

Re: steel floor to wood floor?
long box or short? I have a long box wood bed that is in pretty good shape if you are interested. The crossmembers and bed front should be the only significant differances. i would be willing to trade those pieces from mine for your steel bed front if its in good shape. we just each pay the shipping for the parts we are receiving.
