I just went out and remeasured. I used the back edge of the stake pocket (your point A) - see the attached pic. There may be some differences in the flange width of the aftermarket stake pockets, but my stake pocket is original and didn't change position. There's a notch on the rear of the bedside that matches up to the back of the rear cross-sill and I believe lumbersawyer's measurement would be to the back of the rear cross-sill which is a bit forward of the rear of the box, and equivalent to your point C. I would use that notch as your starting point with lumbersawyer's measurement, which shoudl bet you in the right location. Hopefully that's clear enough.
