Brackets & Accessories For Peterbilt Trucks
Brackets are the unsung hardware of a truck build — holding lighting, mirrors, horns, antennas, and countless other components in place through hundreds of thousands of miles of vibration and stress. Our brackets and accessories inventory covers a wide range of mounting hardware designed for Peterbilt trucks, from light and mirror mounting brackets to cab-mounted accessory hardware.
Frequently asked questions about brackets & accessories
What types of brackets are most commonly replaced on Peterbilt trucks?
Mirror mounting brackets and light mounting brackets are among the most frequently replaced, as they're exposed to road debris, branch strikes, and constant vibration fatigue. Mud flap brackets and fuel tank strap brackets are also common replacement items. Bracket failures are often caused by corrosion at mounting points or metal fatigue from fasteners that were never properly torqued at installation.
Are aftermarket brackets as reliable as OEM?
Quality varies in the aftermarket bracket space. Brackets from established commercial truck parts suppliers are generally manufactured to equivalent strength and fitment specifications as OEM. Lower-cost generic brackets may use lighter gauge steel or lower-grade fastener hardware that won't hold up as well under real-world conditions. For structural or safety-critical applications, a reputable aftermarket brand or OEM part is worth the investment.
How do I know which bracket fits my Peterbilt model?
Peterbilt brackets are often model-specific, and fitment can vary between model years. The most reliable approach is to cross-reference your truck's VIN or the OEM part number on the existing bracket. When ordering, specify your model and year — particularly for light brackets where mounting hole patterns and arm angles vary between cab configurations.
