very nice job i have to do that job to my 76 step side. This video was very informative.

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

Glad to help, hit me up if you have any extra questions.

[@pjt-kl7mb]

I'm excited to get my truck back from mechanic shop to do the same 👍👍👍

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

It was easier than I thought, just time consuming. Hope it turns out great 👍

[@johnz3049]

It comes welded from the factory. I have done 4 of the trucks and they all come welded.

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

You did a great job on this bed.. But, the polyurethane you used won't hold up long. Even if you used UV protection polyurethane, it still won't hold up unless the truck will be garage kept. To keep it from turning, you'll need to reapply that polyurethane at least twice a year. I have tried it, the Sun takes it's toll poly very fast. You could apply a mixture of boiled linseed oil, and beeswax. But even then it needs to be applied every year. Not criticizing, because it looks great.. Just trying to help. But, if it's a garage kept truck your wood won't turn for a very long time. Nice video!

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

thank you very much for the info, wishing you all the best for the future

Hey Uncle Buck, great video. Did you router out grooves for the the edges of the wood for the bed strips?

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

No I did not, left them flat

[@darrelkinney9856]

Looking good on the bed - pine or oak , optional material.

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

Pine

[@eddiepolanco256]

I have a long stepside bed im doing. The bed is going on my truck that was previously a fleetside. My issue is trying to figure out where the bed sills go on the frame. And am i going to have to drill holes in frame to be able to bolt it down. I cant find no decent pics or information online. Thanks

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

SET THE ASSEMBLED BED ON THE FRAME AND MARK THEM. I DID NOT USE CARRAGE BOLTS TO MOUNT MINE. JUST USED THE SIDE TO SIDE RUNNERS AND BOLTS TO ATTACH THEM

[@everydaynick8640]

Hello. About to do this myself on a ‘73 Stepside. Aside from Hardware and such, can you do this without cutting grooves in the new boards? Also the dimensions of the wood differ between what’s posted and what you say. I assume what’s posted is correct?

[@grantslater2485]

Yes, I did it that way. It actually protects the boards better

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

You don't have to cut the grooves, just remember the 3/4 inch thickness is important. width of the boards on the video is correct, whishing you all the best. let me know how it turns out.

[@dannyheath6417]

What about using heat after u spray once it sits

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

ITS AN IDEA, I wanted to keep the wood as light as possible so it would pop against the color of the bed.

[@DickieMoe]

Did you groove the new boards like the old ones were, or leave them 3/4” on the edges?

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

left them, no grooves. sets the runners above the wood for a little extra protection

[@DickieMoe]

@@unclebucksgarage7695 how did that affect the two edge runner placements?

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

It didn't, the boards are not groved under the runners. Doesn't have have any effect, fits great

[@DickieMoe]

@@unclebucksgarage7695 perfect. Thank you

[@unclebucksgarage7695]

welcome, have a great one
