Rear Roll Bar fit?

Anybody know first hand if this REAR roll bar in a 78 Jimmy will fit in my 72 K5?

Can't post a pic from my mobile phone for some reason

No it won't fit. I bought one hoping to tie it into my front one and the legs going to the wheel housing didn't reach.

I don't think GM started putting them in until the late 70's or early 80's. You MAY be able to make one fit but it will not just " bolt-in " a 69-72 Blazer FME

It kind of looks like the one I have , may have to drill different mountings holes if your k5 never had one.
