    ISO both gas tank straps in serviceable condition, links to a proper fitting set appreciated if you can find them at a decent price. Any help would be awesome, I'm a broke ass college kid lmao. 1) are the part numbers the same for the straps?
    2) what are their part numbers?
    I cannot find helpful information, and I see only sets listed for a 95-00

    You can stop by the dealer and get a printed quote. From there you can see the part numbers. From that point you simply tell the parts counter person: “ I am price shopping, and by the way, do you price match or offer discounts”?

    -works everytime for your best deal. And it helps not to be in an emergency.

    If I remember right the tank straps use to not cost a whole lot from the dealer.

    Spectra ST317 is one that says fits my truck (checked AutoZone and CarID) my only silly question now is, are they BOTH the same? This thing is so rusty the rear strap and mounting was basically gone. This is my first time ever doing major frame repair work, and fuel system repair too, all at the same time!

    If you have to fabricate a rear crossmember a factory strap may not fit. Make your own from steel strips and some allthread or bolts and nuts. You could even use the heavy strap material they sell in hardware stores that looks like plumbers strap but is probably 16 gage and about 2 inches wide. Use strips of tow straps or wide ratchet straps. to pad it. I did this to our old farm truck years ago when the ratchet straps we put on it to hold it up after it fell off in a gas station finally failed.
    Why yes I enjoy cobbling stuff together. Lol. It works and saves money sometimes even.

    For future searching - I highly recommend using parts.toyota.com and entering your vin number. Admittedly, the search is not the greatest, and I usually just look through the categories until I find what I am after. In this case, the gas tank, and straps are in the body and interior -> fuel tank & tube category.
