Frequently Asked Questions About International 9900/i/ix Refrigerators-Mounting

What is included in a refrigerator mounting kit for the International 9900/i/ix?

Most kits include the brackets, straps, or frame hardware needed to secure a refrigerator inside the cab or sleeper of your International 9900, 9900i, or 9900ix. Depending on the kit, you may also receive mounting bolts, spacers, and any necessary trim pieces. Always check the product listing for the exact contents, since some kits are designed for specific refrigerator sizes or brands.

Will this mounting kit fit my specific refrigerator model?

Mounting kits are generally designed around standard refrigerator dimensions used in International 9900/i/ix sleepers, but not every kit works with every fridge brand or size. Before ordering, measure your refrigerator and compare it to the kit's listed specifications, or reach out to our team to confirm fit for your particular unit.

Does this kit work with the factory mounting location, or will I need to modify my sleeper?

Most kits are built to align with the factory mounting points used in International 9900/i/ix sleepers, allowing for a straightforward installation without cutting or drilling into the cab structure. If your truck has a non-standard fridge setup or an aftermarket refrigerator installed previously, you may need to make minor adjustments to get a proper fit.

What tools do I need to install a refrigerator mounting kit?

Installation typically requires basic hand tools such as a socket set, wrenches, and a screwdriver. Some installations may also call for a drill if new mounting holes are needed. We recommend reviewing the installation instructions included with your kit before starting, and having a second person on hand to help hold the refrigerator steady during mounting.

How do I know if my mounting hardware is strong enough to secure the refrigerator while driving?

Our mounting kits are built to handle the weight and movement associated with a properly loaded refrigerator during normal over-the-road use. That said, it's important to periodically check that all bolts and straps remain tight, especially after the first few hundred miles, since vibration can cause hardware to loosen over time. If you notice any shifting or unusual noise from the refrigerator area, inspect the mounting points right away.
