Frequently Asked Questions About Freightliner FLD SBA Bumper Trim

What years and models of Freightliner FLD trucks are compatible with SBA bumper trim?

SBA (Set Back Axle) bumper trim is specifically designed for Freightliner FLD 112 and FLD 120 models manufactured from 1989 through 2001. The trim fits both standard and extended hood versions. Before ordering, verify your truck has the set back axle configuration, as set forward axle (SFA) models require different trim pieces. You can confirm this by checking your VIN or measuring the distance from the front bumper to the front axle center - SBA models typically have 112-120 inches.

Is the bumper trim made of chrome-plated steel or stainless steel, and how durable is the finish?

Most aftermarket SBA bumper trim pieces are manufactured from 16-gauge 304 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish, not chrome-plated mild steel. This provides superior corrosion resistance and eliminates concerns about chrome peeling or rust bleeding through. The stainless steel construction typically maintains its appearance for 10-15 years with basic maintenance. Some economy options use chrome-plated steel, so always verify the material specifications before purchasing.

What hardware is needed for installation, and are there any common fitment issues?

Installation requires stainless steel bolts (typically 5/16" or 3/8"), which may not be included with all trim kits. Common fitment challenges include slight gaps at the corners where trim pieces meet, which can be addressed with careful adjustment during installation. Some drivers report needing to slightly elongate mounting holes for perfect alignment. Plan for 2-3 hours of installation time, and having a second person helps significantly when positioning the longer pieces.

What styles and configurations are available for SBA bumper trim?

SBA bumper trim typically comes in three main styles: plain flat trim (most economical), ribbed or grooved trim (adds visual interest), and lighted trim with built-in LED or incandescent light bars. Standard sets include center sections and end caps. You can also choose between 14-inch, 16-inch, or 18-inch bumper widths. Some manufacturers offer custom etching or cutouts for additional personalization. Angled end caps are available for trucks with custom bumper modifications.

Can I install SBA bumper trim on an aftermarket or damaged bumper?

Yes, SBA bumper trim can be installed on most aftermarket bumpers that maintain OEM dimensions. However, bumpers with significant damage, deep rust pitting, or major dents should be repaired first for proper trim adhesion and appearance. The trim attaches to the face of the bumper, so surface preparation is crucial. If your bumper has been shortened or extended beyond factory specifications, you may need custom-cut trim pieces. Always test-fit all pieces before final installation to ensure proper coverage.
