Top questions for a 72
Did the factory put both top bedrail mounts on the 72's? My 72 Jimmy has a double wall top and the holes appear to be factory. It also has the nuts for a single wall top and they have some kind of rubber plugs in them. I assume this was a 72 only thing.
On a side note what is the weight difference between a single wall and a double wall?

Re: Top questions for a 72
the double walls were used in the early '72. Not sure if they had both holes, but it is possible.

Re: Top questions for a 72
It is factory. Some 1972's had double wall top holes only, some single only, then others with both. Would be nice to have, almost like an option.
