What years and models are these hoods compatible with?
Our International 9200/9400 hoods are designed to fit 2002-2017 International 9200, 9200i, 9400, and 9400i models. The hoods are interchangeable between these models within the same year range. However, pre-2002 models have different mounting points and require modification for proper fitment. Always verify your specific VIN and model year before ordering, as some mid-year production changes may affect compatibility.
What's the difference between fiberglass and steel hoods, and which should I choose?
Fiberglass hoods typically weigh 40-60% less than steel alternatives, improving fuel economy and making installation easier. They resist rust but can crack under severe impact. Steel hoods are more durable against physical damage and easier to repair but are heavier and prone to rust without proper maintenance. Most drivers choose fiberglass for weight savings unless they operate in extreme conditions where impact resistance is critical.
Can I install the hood myself, or do I need professional help?
Hood installation requires at least two people due to size and weight. Basic installation involves removing the old hood, transferring hinges and hardware, and mounting the new hood. Most experienced mechanics can complete the job in 2-4 hours. You'll need basic hand tools, proper lifting equipment or assistance, and the ability to adjust hood alignment. Professional installation typically costs $200-400 but ensures proper fitment and alignment.
Will aftermarket hoods match my truck's original paint and finish?
Most aftermarket hoods come in primer finish and require painting to match your truck. Some manufacturers offer pre-painted options in common colors like white, but exact color matching usually requires professional painting. Budget an additional $300-800 for professional paint and prep work. Gel-coated fiberglass hoods have a smooth finish ready for paint, while steel hoods may need additional prep work.
What should I check before buying a replacement hood?
Verify your exact model year and check for any special equipment like extended hoods or aerodynamic packages. Measure your current hood length if you have any doubts - standard hoods are typically 52-54 inches. Check if you need additional components like hood hinges, latches, or support rods, as these aren't always included. Consider whether you want OEM-style or aftermarket designs with features like additional venting or different grille openings.
