Title: Wood dimensions for 86 Step side bed
Post by: Timberwolf on March 09, 2017, 01:04:35 PM
Does anyone know what the dimensions are for the wood to fit an '86 step side?  I'm afraid mine didn't come with
any wood left in it. Lol.

I have read through all of those posts over the past several days.  I looking for where to drill the holes.  I do not have the original boards to use as a template.

I found the drilling instructions for the off centered washers and the milling instructions for the bed strips on the Mar-K and GMC Pauls sites.  But no one seems to have the information on bolt hole placement.  I don't want to do the hidden bed to frame bolt look.
