Frequently Asked Questions About Peterbilt 389 Glider Air Tanks, Wraps & Mounting

What is included in an air tank wrap and mounting kit for the Peterbilt 389 Glider?

These kits typically include the decorative wrap or cover that fits around the air tank, along with the mounting hardware and brackets needed to secure the tank assembly to the frame.

Will this air tank wrap fit the factory air tanks on my Peterbilt 389 Glider?

Most wraps and mounting components sold in this category are designed to match the tank sizes and shapes commonly used on Peterbilt 389 Glider models.

If you are unsure, reach out to our team with your tank measurements or truck specs for confirmation.

What materials and finish options are available for air tank wraps?

Air tank wraps are commonly offered in stainless steel with various finish options such as brushed, polished, or diamond plate textures. Some wraps also include cutouts or perforations for brackets, drains, or fittings. The finish you choose should complement the rest of your truck's stainless accessories for a consistent look.

Do I need to remove the air tank to install the wrap or mounting hardware?

In most cases, the tank does not need to be removed from the truck to install a wrap, since these products are designed to wrap around the tank in place or install in sections. Mounting hardware and brackets may require loosening or temporarily removing the tank straps, so it is a good idea to review the installation instructions included with your specific product before starting.

Are these air tank wraps and mounting parts made from durable, weather-resistant materials?

Yes, air tank wraps and mounting components in this category are typically constructed from stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials built to handle exposure to road debris, moisture, and temperature changes. Proper installation and periodic cleaning will help maintain the finish and extend the life of the part.
