Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 379 Cab Repair Parts

What kinds of parts are included in this category?

This category covers structural and cosmetic cab repair components for the Peterbilt 379, including items like cab corners, floor panels, door skins, patch panels, cab mounts, and other sheet metal or fiberglass sections used to repair rust damage, collision damage, or general wear on the cab structure.

Will these parts fit my specific model year of Peterbilt 379?

The Peterbilt 379 was produced over a long run of years with some variations in cab design, so it is important to check the fitment notes on each product listing. If you are unsure whether a part matches your truck's year or configuration, our customer service team can help confirm compatibility before you order.

Are these repair panels made from steel or fiberglass?

Depending on the specific part, you will find options in both steel and fiberglass. Steel panels are typically used for structural areas like cab corners and floor sections, while fiberglass is common for exterior body panels and cosmetic pieces. The product description will specify the material so you can choose based on your repair needs and budget.

Do these parts come primed or painted, and will they match my truck's finish?

Most cab repair parts are sold unpainted or in primer so they can be color-matched during installation. This gives you the flexibility to paint the part to match your truck's exact color rather than dealing with a mismatched factory finish. Plan for paint and bodywork as part of your installation process.

What tools or skills are needed to install these parts?

Installation typically requires cutting out the damaged section, welding or bonding in the new panel, and finishing with body filler, primer, and paint. This is generally a job for someone experienced with sheet metal repair, welding, and bodywork, or a professional body shop, especially for structural components like cab corners or floor panels.
