[QUOTE="zghorner, post: 3359149, member: 35089"] one thing that has me concerned about going back with wood is the trailer has been redecked before and half of the screws broke off the first time AND just now...could not get many of them out with penetrating fluid and vise grips so ended up cutting and grinding them flush...so i could see it being a major pain in the butt going back in with self tapping screws from the top only to hit an old screw and have to re-drill the hole. Probably would drill holes through the bottom and up through the wood which is going to suck still as some of those crossmembers are pretty thick (in the middle). [/QUOTE]
