I am going to look into two choices, a local company here makes alot of replacement parts and they have new cross sills that are supposed to fit over the originals, but they also have new ones to, also looking in my LMC catalog, I had a guy tell me that those road sign posts are nearly the same dimension, I plan on the diamond plate floor and that means I might have to make up some heavy washers depending on where the carriage bolts go down thru, cant remember is they hit the high or low spot, either way the diamond plate is the cheapest way to go, that dimension is a special order, but a local company here can do it.
