Stop chasing down a rusted-out fuel tank support and keep your truck ready for inspection with the Dorman - OE Solutions Front Fuel Tank Crossmember 999-965 (also written 999965). It's engineered to drop in like the original front crossmember on 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500 trucks — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the specific cab and engine details.

On certain extended- and crew-cab Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 Series trucks, the front crossmember that supports the fuel tank can rust, and that corrosion can spread into the frame — ultimately leading to a failed inspection and an unsafe vehicle. This Dorman OE FIX crossmember is designed to save the expense of a whole new frame or the labor of fabricating a replacement.

  • Application-specific: engineered to match the fit and function of the original front fuel tank crossmember on the specified Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 trucks.
  • Welding required: installation calls for grinding off the existing weld points on the frame before welding on the new crossmember.
  • Rugged construction: manufactured from high-strength quality steel and coated with a corrosion-resistant finish for added durability.

After welding, spot-paint the weld points and heat-affected areas of the crossmember and frame as needed for protection against the elements.
