81 Stepside wood floor replacement
I've never replaced one before and am on very limited budget. Going to have White Oak planks donated, what sort of measurements to I need to do this effectively? Any al all help is welcome. I thought of useing tread plate aluminum, but it gives too much flash and just isn't my style... Always need help... |

If the old planks are still in the bed use them to get your dimensions.
