If its part of the cab I think you are looking for an outer lower pillar pocket. It has a bolt hole for the hinge. There is an inner and an outer.

If its part of the fender its the fender brace there is a left or right on bot parts

I think that you are right . I look at www.lmctruck .com and found that it the hinge pillar repair panel.... www.ccgtrucks.com calls it lower outer pillar section
and www.grumpystruckparts.com calls it front hinge pillar repair
thanks for the help . I would have posted the pic but I have not found out how to transfer from cardomain.com

I just realized that there is a fender re-inforcement bracket that the bolt goes thru into the fender brace to secure the lower fender to the cab. That is a part that you may have to make. I haven't seem them anywhere. It welds to the bottom of the lower outer pillar pocket.

you know I think that you are right the fender does have a bolt on the bottom and it bolts to the lower pillar It is going to sux if I have to make it just might have to cut the left side off in order to make the right .. Hey if I make this part does anybody need one ? might as well make like 5 of each side

I need 2. It supprises me that no one makes these. If you have a rotted pillar pocket usually the bracket is gone as well.

LMC shows a pillar repair piece that looks like it has the ear for the fender bolt. #4 at top of page.
