Turn bed boards over? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

gulffishin · 08-05-2010, 10:24 PM

Hey guys, the previous owner of my truck installed a wood kit, but did not put any finish on it. The top of the boards are pretty weathered and splintering, but the bottoms look pretty good. I was wondering if it is possible to turn the bed boards over and reinstall them with the "good side" facing out and put spar varnish on them. I know that I will have to cut the grooves for the strips and some of the holes will have to be re drilled, but does this sound like it would work?

Has anyone else tried to do this?
