Wood Floor Strips

I purchased the wood for the floor off of Ebay and it was nice...now what strips do I need? I seen two kits I can buy. One is an angle kit and the other is just a strip kit. Do I need both??

The angle strips are the ones that attach to the side of the bed and have a 90 degree angle.
The bed strips are the ones that go between the wood slats.
I would say Yes you need both kits.
Here is a link to a site which has pics of the parts involved.

Stepside or fleetside? My fleetside had no need for any angle strips.

The angle strips are welded to the bedsides.

yeah I wonder how you remove the angle strips since they are welded? Obviously you could do it with a grinder but it would burn the paint on the outside...
