Should bolt right up. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,780 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,780 | The fenders will work, the only difference is GMC has the parking lights in the fender. The hood is different, the bumper is the same but the valence is different. The front crossmember is different. The doors, cab, running boards, most of the interior are the same. Outside of the few body panels and the engine, there are few differences. There may be some others that i did not mention but I am sure the GMC guys will let us know!  | | | | | Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 384 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 384 | Yep-- Jimmies make good parts vehicles for Chebbies. Stay away from those drab grills tho.

There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.
