Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 386 Fuel Tank Accessories

Will these fuel tank accessories fit my specific year Peterbilt 386?

Most fuel tank accessories in this category are designed to fit Peterbilt 386 models from 2005-2015. However, there can be variations based on tank size and configuration. We recommend checking your specific tank dimensions and mounting points before ordering. Common tank sizes are 100, 120, and 150 gallons. If you're unsure, contact our support team with your VIN number and we can verify compatibility.

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

Aluminum straps and brackets are lighter weight and resist corrosion well, making them ideal for weight-conscious drivers. They typically cost less but may show wear faster in harsh conditions. Stainless steel options offer superior durability and maintain their appearance longer, especially in winter road salt conditions. While heavier and more expensive, stainless steel components generally last the life of the truck with minimal maintenance.

Do I need special tools or professional installation for fuel tank steps and brackets?

Basic fuel tank accessories like steps and standard brackets can typically be installed with common hand tools including wrenches, sockets, and a drill for any new mounting holes. Installation usually takes 1-2 hours per side. However, fuel tank removal or major bracket replacements should be done by a professional due to safety concerns. Always support the tank properly and never work on a full tank.

Are polished or chrome fuel tank accessories worth the extra cost over painted ones?

Polished aluminum and chrome accessories require more maintenance but provide a classic, professional appearance many owner-operators prefer. They need regular polishing to maintain their shine, especially in winter months. Painted or powder-coated options are more practical for work trucks, resisting scratches and requiring only basic cleaning. Consider your usage - show trucks benefit from polished finishes while daily working trucks often do better with durable painted surfaces.

Can I mix fuel tank accessories from different manufacturers on my Peterbilt 386?

While many fuel tank accessories use standard mounting patterns, mixing brands can sometimes result in slight alignment issues or aesthetic inconsistencies. For the best fit and appearance, we recommend staying within the same product line when possible. Popular compatible brands include Grand General, United Pacific, and Iowa 80. Always verify mounting hole patterns match your existing setup before purchasing.
