another question about steel to wood floor - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

RShaips · 03-29-2004, 01:03 AM

Ok, I will have all the cross sills, the front panel and the back piece very soon for the wood to fit in. Will the metal floor unbolt and come out ? I am going to take the bed off soon and finish it. Is there holes where the cross sills go ,or do I need to drill them ? Is there a pattern that I can get ? I have the wood pattern details from GMC Pauls site but did not see anything about the cross sills. Thanks

I am not sure but when I replaced my bed side's it sure did not look like the wood insert would be easy??? Seem's like the rear most sill would not unbolt from the metal bed but memory could serve me wrong..

Mar-K offers a kit for this swap so I know it can be done , just wondering how much trouble it is. Thanks
