Frequently Asked Questions About Kenworth T660 Fuel Tank Brackets & Straps

Will these fuel tank brackets fit my specific year Kenworth T660?

Our fuel tank brackets and straps are designed to fit Kenworth T660 models from 2008-2016. However, compatibility can vary based on your specific tank size and configuration. We recommend checking your existing bracket measurements or contacting our support team with your VIN to ensure proper fitment. Most brackets are universal for 25-inch diameter tanks, but some variations exist for 23-inch and 26-inch tank setups.

What's the difference between aluminum and steel fuel tank brackets?

Steel brackets are more affordable and extremely durable, typically lasting 10-15 years with proper maintenance. However, they're heavier and prone to rust without regular coating. Aluminum brackets cost about 30-40% more but offer superior corrosion resistance and reduce weight by approximately 8-10 pounds per set. For trucks operating in salt-heavy regions or those prioritizing weight reduction, aluminum is worth the investment.

Can I install these brackets myself, or do I need professional help?

Installation typically takes 2-3 hours for experienced mechanics and 4-6 hours for DIY installers. You'll need basic tools including a socket set, torque wrench, and jack stands. The main challenges include safely supporting the fuel tank during bracket replacement and achieving proper alignment. We provide detailed installation instructions with each purchase, but if you're uncomfortable working with heavy fuel tanks, professional installation is recommended for safety.

How do I know when my fuel tank straps need replacement?

Replace your straps immediately if you notice fraying, cuts deeper than 1/8 inch, rust on metal components, or stretching beyond the adjustment range. During pre-trip inspections, check for loose connections, unusual tank movement, or wear marks on the tank surface. Most straps last 5-7 years under normal conditions, but harsh environments can reduce this to 3-4 years. Always replace straps in pairs to ensure even support.

Are aftermarket brackets as reliable as OEM Kenworth parts?

Quality aftermarket brackets from reputable manufacturers often match or exceed OEM specifications at 40-60% less cost. Look for brackets that meet SAE J393 standards and feature proper weight ratings for your tank size. The main differences are typically cosmetic finishes and minor mounting variations. Our aftermarket options include the same grade materials and undergo similar testing as OEM parts, with most featuring powder coating or e-coating for enhanced durability.
