Frequently Asked Questions About Kenworth W990 Fuel Tank Brackets & Straps

What years and models of Kenworth W990 do these fuel tank brackets and straps fit?

Our fuel tank brackets and straps are designed to fit Kenworth W990 models from 2018 to present. These parts are specifically engineered for the W990's frame rail spacing and tank mounting configuration. If you have a pre-2018 model or a different Kenworth series, please contact our support team as fitment may vary based on your specific tank size and mounting setup.

Are these brackets and straps made from stainless steel or regular steel?

We offer both stainless steel and powder-coated steel options. Stainless steel brackets provide superior corrosion resistance and typically last 15-20 years in harsh conditions. Powder-coated steel brackets are more budget-friendly and work well in moderate climates but may require replacement every 7-10 years depending on exposure to road salt and moisture. Check each product listing for specific material specifications.

Do I need special tools or professional installation for these brackets and straps?

Basic installation can be completed with standard shop tools including wrenches, sockets, and a torque wrench. You'll need to safely support the fuel tank during replacement, which typically requires a transmission jack or tank cradle. Most experienced mechanics can complete the job in 2-3 hours. We recommend having a helper available as fuel tanks can be heavy and awkward to maneuver. Always follow proper safety procedures and drain the tank before beginning work.

What's the difference between OEM and aftermarket fuel tank brackets for my W990?

OEM brackets are identical to factory specifications and guarantee perfect fit but come at a premium price. Our aftermarket options are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM standards at a more competitive price point. The main differences are typically in finish options and minor design improvements. Aftermarket brackets often feature enhanced drainage holes or reinforced stress points based on common failure patterns observed in the field.

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

Inspect your brackets and straps during regular maintenance for signs of rust, cracks, bent mounting points, or stretched straps. Common warning signs include fuel tank movement or shifting, unusual noises while driving, visible corrosion at mounting points, or straps that no longer maintain proper tension. In salt belt states, we recommend inspection every 6 months and preventive replacement every 5-7 years to avoid roadside failures.
