Truck cap interchange

Will a truck cap from a long bed 2nd Gen fit a long bed 3rd Gen truck?

I think they are close enough in length, but the beds taper quite a bit from front to back.

Height may also differ a bit.

I can measure my bed width tomorrow and post up. I have an A.R.E. fg cap that is of pretty good quality. It is flush to the inside bed rails and headboard exactly...

Maybe you can request a 3rd genner post up some measurements also?

I've got a 3rd Gen, so I can measure it. If you can measure yours, that would be great.

Thanks
