60-62 Chevy Frame Horns vs 60-62 GMC

Can anyone tell me if the frame horns (front bumper mounting configuration) of the 60-62 Chevy C10 is the same as the 60-62 GMC? I have a lead on some replacement frame horns but they are GMC and I am not sure if the Chevy and GMC's frames were the same (and just the body panels etc were different?)

Frames were the same, just the GMC had rear leaf springs instead of coil. Body panels were the same, just the grill and hood were different. And of course the tailgate had either Chevrolet or GMC stamped on it.

Thanks 60-66 Nut for the information, I can now get these frame horns and repair/rebuild the front end.
