Bed width

Does anyone know the width of the wood between the fenders? Indicated by the red arrow in the picture. I am calculating it to be around 48"-49". It's for a 64 C10 LWB Fleetside. Thanks in advance!

Re: Bed width

Thanks 47!! Awesome! I think in my calculations I was not able to compensate for the space between the boards left for expansion.

Re: Bed width

47, if you could take some pictures as you are taking it apart that would be awesome! The PO on my had so screwed up on it that I am working on getting it back together with the right measurements etc but have not much to go by. Like the bedside supports that bolt to the cross sill and to the bottom of the side, those little rod things, it took forever to figure out from pictures which side of the cross sill they bolted to.

Re: Bed width

Thanks for the link! I used that to calculate the width but I think there is a space between the boards that is unknown which made me come out narrower then what 47guy was measuring.
