HELP!! Cabover Seal For Sleeper??
 
I am looking at getting a Pete or Freightliner cabover, so I can put a large sleeper to make into an RV. But I would like to know how to seal between the cab and the sleeper. Since the cab will tilt forward for maintenance, I need a weather seal that seals in bad weather. How have people done this in cabovers? What is the best way to seal it when it is sitting or better yet, driving the OPEN HIGHWAY??

Thanks

Why not just enter through a door on the cat walk rather than crawl over the bed to enter? Also if you choose to enter through the back of the cab you will have to put both the cab and the front of the sleeper on the same air bags so they bounce at the same time. Not to mention the safety latch on your cabover that keeps you from flipping while a hard brake.
I would just enter on the catwalk.
