They all share the same parts, I can tell you that from working in a body shop. If you get the same part for either one it's stamped GM not Chevy or GMC. The main differences are cosmetic, and GMC uses locking fasteners on some things that Chevy does not, but if you take the front clip off of either one and park them side by side, you won't know the difference.

exactly, and another example is the mazda b2000 and the Ranger, everything is the same, except a few things like bed style and interior and a few mechanical thiings..... but atleast 85% of that is ford also with the escapes and tributes....

Okay but like I said I will have a conversation with my father n law on Sunday cuz I know we talked about this in February on our way to Maine for a snowmobile trip and he was talking about the difference of bother and he would know because he works on them and on there engines all the time...i will take his word but I was under the impression that gmc's are built with higher quality parts if I remember correctly...maybe they will fit each other but gmc just use a higher grade lemme part. I do t know but will definitely find out the facts for sure either way
