blazer and jimmy use the same top. but they do make a single wall and double wall top. I dont know if they interchange or not. I have only seen the double wall tops.

GMC and Chevy tops are all the same. The only difference is single wall and double wall tops. The double wall is bolted from underneath and the single wall tops bolt from the top. The holes are placed different for the tops. The single wall tops have a nut plate in the bed.

Single or double wall, chevy or GMC as long as its 69-72 it will fit.

BTW I edited your post.
