I'm thinking you will rub the paint off the cab of your truck, and/or the underside of your TC cab over.
This concept has been around at least since the 70's. A very common TC add on. Back then, a cushion was inserted between the cab and cab over, then aired up. As I recall, 6 psi. Some were simply made of foam. Put the foam on the roof, then lower the TC. I have had both types.
These devices usually wore the paint off the cab of the truck. Someone then come up with a plastic film you put on the roof to protect the paint. That only left the paint on the underside of the TC cab over to rub off.
Personally, I never found enough benefit to continue using them. Considering you seldom, if ever see them any longer suggest a lot of people see any real benifit.
