What is the difference between Duster bodies

I am curious to know why online part stores separate the year models by 70-72 and 73-76 when buying weather stripping and other glass seals. I'm more particular in the roof rails. would a 70-72 model Duster roof rail seal fit a 74 ? They look to be the exact same body styles.


The doors and glass changed in 73 or 74. I put a set of 72 doors on my 75 and had to use the seals off of the 72 because the door glass is different.
