time to replace the bed floor. the floor of the dump body has the kiln-dried spruce that a previous owner installed. it was untreated when i purchased the truck. i added several coats of stain, and motor oil, but it has rotted out. no surprise, really, as k-d spruce isn't particularly rot-resistant. took the truck on a trip to pick up a load of eastern hemlock to replace the floor. 12-footers, 1.5-inches thick, rough sawn. i'll coat them entirely with several coats of used motor oil before installation. meanwhile, i'll have to grind off about 30 of the bolts holding the floor on, as the p/o used a welder rather than lock-nuts. you can see some of the rot and broken floor boards in the pics.
