Sixinarow, 4WD are pretty rare, and a 4WD crew would be tough to find. Then there's the wheelbase. The ones I've seen seem to be fairly short. I would suggest a minimum 14 ft box - that would need about 217 or 229 wheelbase. Mine is 188 with a 14 ft box. A crew cab with a 14 ft box would be about 28 feet lon overall.
Mine will weigh over 16,000 wet when its finished; including 60 gallon of water and 70 gallon of diesel. I'm getting close to the GVWR; mine is a C4500. I've got a big solar system, with 8 golf cart batteries that weigh about 700 lbs with the necessary racks.
My point being to be very careful on the weight while planning your build, as you will soon get up to the GVWR. The C5500 has a heigher GVWR, but the front axle is rated at 8,000 lbs from memory.
I used a new aluminum box that weighs about 2,200 empty. I'll add about 600 lbs to finish the walls, including lightweight studs to thicken the wall / ceiling to 2.5" & 3.5" respectively; spray foam and interior FRP walls, total of 2,800 lbs. You could perhaps use a composite box from somebody like Total Composits and save some weight, mayber halve my box weight.
There was a thread on here of a guy doing a really nice build on one of these trucks, but he got much too heavy for the truck and ended up putting the box on an international chassis from memory

The reason I went with the GMC rather than a Ford or Dodge was the higher rated front axle, and much better visibility. Coming up the switchbacks from White Rim Road, near Moab UT, in my Ram 2500 was no fun with my wife terrified because she couldn't see the road !!
I wish you all the best, and if I can help at all please don't be shy.
