First post, been reading a lot on here for advice. Bought the truck last summer, really got into it this summer. Came with plywood which was pretty well rotted out. I decided I didnt want a "show truck" look and went the cheaper route too. I used 1x8x8 cedar ( yes its not hard wood but lets face it im not putting anything in the bed...) I used cabbot clear for uv and water protection and have the advantage of cedar being good outside. Finally did away with the metal strips 1. Too expensive 2. I like the way the gaps look. Let me know what you think. ps its not bolted down in this picture so it looks a tad uneven in the back but is better now that its tightened. Another side note, I hid the bolts that attach to the frame under the wood to have a cleaner look.

I think it looks nice.

Thats awesome! I've been thinking about doing this in my sweptside bed. Can you snap some pics of the underside?

Looks great! Sometimes doing things your own way instead of the way it came from the factory is the way to go. Nice work
