Anyone measure the gap? I cut my bed down to a short bed also. The gap from the back of the cab to the front box panel measures 11/8 inch on one side and 1 inch on the other. I need to spend some time getting it all straight but im curios about an actual measurement myself.

1" is about right.

Run a tape from the front right to rear left and then opposite, this will tell you if you are square, there is a surprising amount of movement.

Thanks for the reply guys. My truck goes back for final paint soon. Once its done i will be able to line it up better and bolt it down.

I know what you meen. Ive been very surprised at the amount of movement when it comes to reassembly. I had to loosen my cab mount bolts and adjust the cab forward. I was having trouble with my inner fenders. I was blown away. You really need to have a close look at the whole thing when you put it back together not just the part your working on. Especially when you've stripped it to the fram and done the amount of work I've had to do. Thanks again.
