J.C. Whitney JF26290014 Wheel Arch Repair Panel Driver Side LH with Round Fuel Hole

The J.C. Whitney JF26290014 is a driver-side (left-hand) bedside wheel arch extension repair panel designed as an OEM-style replacement for 1973–1979 Ford F-Series full-size pickup trucks and 1978–1979 Ford Bronco models. This panel features a round fuel door hole and is engineered to restore the structural integrity and appearance of the bedside where rust, rot, or collision damage is most common.

Wheel arch and bedside extension panels on classic Ford trucks are highly susceptible to corrosion due to their low-mounted position and exposure to road debris, moisture, and salt. This reproduction repair panel allows restorers and hobbyists to replace only the damaged section of the bedside rather than sourcing a full replacement bedskin.

Key Features:

• OEM-Style Reproduction — designed to match original factory shape, contours, and hole patterns
• Stamped Steel Construction — durable automotive-grade steel for long-lasting repair
• Driver Side (LH) — left-hand / driver-side fitment
• Round Fuel Door Hole — correct configuration for applicable model years and trim levels
• Bedside Extension / Wheel Arch — replaces the outer lower bedskin section surrounding the rear wheel opening
• Backed by J.C. Whitney's 1-Year Warranty — unlimited-mileage coverage for worry-free purchase

This panel is sold individually and is intended for use on Ford F-Series StyleSide pickup trucks from 1973 to 1979 and Ford Bronco models from 1978 to 1979. Welding and/or adhesive bonding may be required for installation. Verify your truck's fuel hole configuration (round vs. square) before ordering.
