Noisy cab

Since its been cold the drivers side corner of my cab has started to make a squeeky, creaky like noise. Sometimes sounds kind of like a scratching. What is this? I don't remember this last winter unless I just forgot. Seems to be the whole corner of the cab, not only the bottom of the cab corner. I can't find anything right off.

Maybe a body mount

What sucks is the cold brings out all the 'little things' that squeak and squeal

Could it be the bed scraping up against the back of the cab?

nroden, mine does that, too. My squeaky noise is coming from where the driver's side front fender bolts to the cab. In tightening it, the lower bolt bottomed out before the head/washer came in contact. I think a shim is missing. Still squeaks, but not very often anymore. Just another thing to do.

Maybe ice or snow built up between the cab and box.
