Truck Box Question

I just brought home a GMC long bed and it has a wood floor. What I'm wondering is if I can replace the wood floor with a steel one. Would the bedsides, front piece, and wheel covers bolt to the steel floor. Thank's in advance Jason.

Thank's for the help. I'm not sure what condition the cross members and front piece are in. But I'll let you know when I get the bed off the truck and can take a better look at them. Thank's again Jason.

If I'm not mistaken, there is no replacement for steel long bed floors, you may want to just replace the wood.

Front panel lower lip is lower to accommodate the thickness of wood floorboards.
Only replacement panels for metal floor that would have to be welded together.
Diamond plate floors are very nice and also expensive.
