Ahh...
19 ga steel is what your truck is made out of!!!
Many car manufactors back into the 30's used 19ga to build their exterior panels.

Ive recieved MANY brand new OEM parts that needed work. Chevy trucks are the WORSEST. The first thing you do to a fender is ream out the mounting holes. Sent back many brand new doors because of the holes for the hinge plate was in the wrong location. And this is on brand new trucks!!!

As for parts being made in china just like every other american company, its all about money. Go ask the people that worked for huffy bicycles, koduk film, dell computers and many others...Eric
