We know from years of feedback from readers, customers and amazon sellers, what most people want in a convenient and appropriate strap. The dorman truck tank strap is exactly that - it's a simple strap that hits all the right notes. This fuel tank strap matches the fit, function and performance of the original part. The bolts are about 3/4" longer and work like a charm. There's a very prominent "made in china" sticker on the bottom of the strap. The value is in the cost and makes the job twice as easy when you can use new straps every time you replace a fuel tank.
The originals have a thick rubberized coating while the coating on these are thin. It's also best to remove most of the fuel from the tank. The bolts are excellent quality and are better than the originals because they do not have the rubber on them which causes them to rust out and fail. It's helpful to get longer bolts, so it helps you with installation.

According to Spectra Premium's online catalog, the ST183 Fuel Tank Straps are compatible with the 1996 Chevrolet C3500 chassis cab with a front. The bolt in this kit is much longer and will make the job far easier to attach the tank strap and tighten. There is one short strap and one long strap on the tank and this set is sent with two long straps. It’s perfect fit for replacement of the rusted out rear 2005 silverado strap.
These are raw steel & primed & painted. The longer bolt makes it a far easier job instead of a real pain attempting to get the old one to start in the threads. These have a 15mm socket ready for the tank strap bolts and a breaker bar. It’s thinner than OEM.
