Front wheel well cover plates?

Hey guys...

Does anyone know where to get the access covers that are located on front wheel wells (they are located on the rear side of the front tires). I'm needing a set...

Thanks,
Anthony

Re: Front wheel well cover plates?

I bought mine for my 4x4 from Chevy Duty. I believe that they changed their name to American Classic truck Parts. They still have them for $17.00 each for the 2wds and $28.00 for the 4x4s. Part name is front fender dust shield/seal. Here is the link:

hope this helps. ...Joe

Re: Front wheel well cover plates?

Re: Front wheel well cover plates?

There isn't a repair panel for those, it is part of the inner fender.

no one that I know of sells them separately, they are considered part of the inner fender.

Re: Front wheel well cover plates?

I guess I misunderstood the question. I thought that you were referring to the rubber splash shields that attach to the inner fenders. These guys are right. If your inner fenders are rusted where they bolt up to the cab, you will have to buy completely new inner fenders because they don't make a patch panel to repair that area. ...Joe
