AMD part question for totallyhucked

[fast 99]

need to order front wheel wells for an 85 K 20. There are 2 listings one is out of stock.

What is the difference between 250-4081 L and X 250 4081 L thanks

I’m not Zach, but I can answer that question, the X in an AMD part number shows it’s not an AMD part. They call them X-Parts.

They are good enough they deemed them worthy to sell, but they are not an AMD tooled part. And likely not as high quality as an AMD tooled part.

Yep, like Spencer said the X part number means it's not our part. The X-brand aren't bad, they're shaped correctly and fit fine but they're thinner, not as nice of a stamping and the edges are typically very sharp. Takes some extra finesse before install to make them nice. They're the ones that have been available through everybody for the last 30yrs, what we refer to as "crash parts" that the bodyshops/insurance companies have been using for years.

The reason we only have the LH listed for an X version is because that's all we have left of those. We've been selling those out until they're gone, then we'll only off our "our" version, the regular 250-4081-L/R, which are our own in house tooling.

Would rather buy the better line given the shipping cost. Will wait until they are available.

What’s happening with the ’77 and up left side doors? It’s been a while now waiting for retooling.

I haven't gotten any updated word at this point unfortunately. Last I knew the factory was simply swamped and backed up from labor shortages, apparently they're in worse shape there than we are here finding labor.

I believe that's nationwide. We desperately need competent laborers. But nobody wants to work.

It's worldwide unfortunately, our factory is in Taiwan and they're worse off than we are and we're pretty bad
