I was told the bed I got is an '84 and it has the wood. Well it did have, I replaced it with a new piece of treated plywood last week. I know it was factory, I was planning on putting it back, but it fell apart on removal. That and I had to cut out about 6 of the bolts. Maybe it was an option in the later years? I dont see many stepsides around here, but they all have wooden (or lack thereof) floors.
