Krazo Posted June 2, 2017 Author Posted June 2, 2017 Well the untreated wins out for the bunks, but only because that's what I already have in 2 2x4 8'ers. But it'll be treated lumber for the guide rails. I found cheap carpet at Daves discount carpet on N glenstone for covering em. Good to know people are using treated stuff for this & not having issues with the aluminum. Seems I read that it does cause issues with a chemical reaction but no one has had a first hand bad experience. Maybe in a transom it's a bad idea but I can't see it being a problem in the bunks.
Seth Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 I used cedar and carpet when I replaced mine earlier this year, just to be safe. When I redo it next time, I will go with treated and a bunk covering like Gatorbak.
