What type of screws?

They are grey epoxy coated steel deck screws. NOT stainless.
All the measurements are custom to the 2012 Silverado, with the liner in. I am building with the liner dimensions and planning on leaving it in the truck.

The floor is basically 4', but has extended wings in front and back of the wheel wells. I slid just the base into the bed. Fits real nice, shouldn't be a problem. If I were building for any full size truck, I would make the outside walls maximum 48"w/skin.
