Sheetmetal Gauge

I have a friend that owns a full blown sheetmetal shop. I want to get him to make me a new floor, bedsides, and toeboard. I'm going to make the bed out of 16gauge, but what gauge should I get the floor and toe board from?

Re: Sheetmetal Gauge

Cool, that's kind of what I was thinking. Know where I can get dimensions on this part http://estore.websitepros.com/126980...PAN/Detail.bok ?

Obviously I can get it measured after I remove the cab, I would just like to have it made upfront.
