I think 73 was the last year its was standard. I think 73 and later for the fleets it was an option.

Standard would be steel, optional would have been wood.

Re: When did they stop putting wood floors in the beds?
Yeah,but`87 was the last Stepside.So,all Stepsides always had wood floors.From`88-on they were a resemblance of a Stepside known as Sportsides.They went from utility to sporty.
