Re: Wood bed thickness question

Whatever that lip at the back sill allows, is what you need to aim for if you are cutting it yourself. The bedsides will set on top of the wood and too shyly cut wood as well as too thickly cut wood will show up as you get further along. I would lean on the thinner side for an alternate source as you can shim your bed to frame. The closer you cut to factory, the better off you are.
