This is a neat build. One thing about cab and beds, that I learned the hard way, is they move independently. The cab is usually mounted to the frame on a 4-6 molded rubber vibration isolators, and the bed solid. The problem is when you bridge the gap between bed and cab, things squeak. This might not sound like a big deal now, but I had a 1/4 'sleeper shell' mounted on one of my trucks that drove me insane, from rubbing and squeaking, until I remounted it, increasing the gap, using a flexible accordion boot to make the connection between the two.

Keep up the good work!
