I have no time for foreign crap and will search for OEM either NOS or used parts when needed.
Most of the aftermarket parts for our trucks (and other vehicle restorations) come from CHINA where they really don't give a d*mn about quality or the correctness of the part being reproduced!! It's time that we cut all ties with foreign manufacturers (ESPECIALLY CHINA) of REPRO parts for our vehicles whether they are antique or late model!! The USA MUST COME FIRST and bring those manufacturers who left the USA for "greener pastures" back home where they belong!!
