Ok ,I must be missing something or parts avalability is different where I live,...
I have 6 of the stock plates in various locations. They must be making the plates for the 'Cuda crowd that can recoup the cost.
The only way I can make sense of the $80 plate on a Duster is building a major Loss leader for advertising.
There is nothing wrong with most parts from China, a CNC machine is a CNC machine, a lathe is a Lathe. It doesn't matter what country it's in, same work. It's an outdated mindset that American products are always better quality.
I love my country. We don't make the best quality anymore,we make the most expensive and lack QC.
We need more American pride and Knowhow in our worksmanship.

A CNC machine is not a CNC machine nor is a lathe a lathe. In addition, nether is a worker a worker or a machinist a machinist. Not here, not over there, not anywhere.

While you can get a good quality item from China, not all companies spec that quality from them. If you don’t spec it and check it, your probably screwing yourself and allowing crap into the customers hands.

A great product can be found here in the U.S.A., but you need to pay the man his days wage and that’s not cheap nor is getting the material needed for the job.
