PS - they give you what you need to know about notching the wood to work with the brackets. GMC Paul's website will give you the dimensions I think (maybe the last person posting on it can link up to it), because, as you can see, the boards are NOT the same width all the way across on one of our trucks. The easy part is cutting the width and length correctly - hard part is actually milling the edge so your metal strips fit into the board properly!
