Default 2001 jimmy body to a 95/96 body

Hi I'm a newbie to the forum. I have a 2001 gmc jimmy that I recently rolled onto its side. I found a guy partying outa 95/96 blazer and am wondering if I can swap body for body and what kind of problems I may run into? Thanks in advance

The interiors between the 95-97 and the 98+ are completely different. You will have a lot of work to get them to fit and work I'd imagine. The body isn't really much different on the outside, but I'm pretty sure there are differences somewhere.

Yes. i`ve got Chevy Blazer 11/94 year (Vortec 4,3 index W, 4L60-E, 4WD part time by buttons), with sealed beam headlights, I redid the front of the next generation with composite headlights.
