[oletrucks] Bed board thickness

[jelerath@us.ibm.com]

I have a '53 3100.  Someone has obviously already "tweaked" the bed because
I have only 4 boards, but there are bolts (not the metal strips) for 8.  I
recently put a hole in it carrying a F@#d engine.

Question: Is it possible to replace the boards with thicker ones? such as
tongue and groove 2x6's?  Yeah, I know, ANYTHING is possible, but is it a
slam dunk or a lot of work?  Has anyone ever done it?
