Re: 1986 Tank Guard Bracket

You may have to fabricate one. I looked for a stone shield for an Astro (through 2005) a few years ago and they were no longer available. A nearly 34 year old truck is going to be a challenge for small items like that.

As you probably discovered, that applies to 1987-1991 trucks, but those are still over 30 years old. None of the usual online parts places listed that as an available part.

Re: 1986 Tank Guard Bracket

Yes- that is what I came up with as well. I was hoping there was some obscure "obsolete" parts dealer that I was unaware of. There's one bracket on each side... truck was involved in accident- body shop trashed the other one. I purchased the truck from the body shop in 2000. Here is the part- tough one to imitate...
