Frequently Asked Questions About International IH Cabover Bumpers
What years and models of International Cabover trucks do these bumpers fit?
Our International IH Cabover bumpers are designed to fit various models including the CO-4000 series (4070, 4170, 4270, 4370), 9670, 9700, and older models from the 1970s through early 2000s. Each bumper listing specifies exact model compatibility. If you're unsure about fitment for your specific truck, please contact us with your OEM or model year information, and we'll verify compatibility before you order.
Are these bumpers made from chrome-plated steel or stainless steel, and which is better for my needs?
We offer both chrome-plated steel and polished stainless steel options. Chrome-plated bumpers provide a mirror-like finish at a lower cost but require regular maintenance to prevent rust, especially in harsh weather conditions. Stainless steel bumpers cost more initially but resist corrosion naturally and maintain their appearance with minimal upkeep. For trucks exposed to road salt or coastal environments, we recommend stainless steel for long-term durability.
How difficult is the installation, and what tools or modifications are required?
Most International IH Cabover bumpers are direct bolt-on replacements that use existing mounting holes and brackets. Installation typically takes 2-4 hours with basic hand tools including socket wrenches, a torque wrench, and possibly a floor jack for support. Some aftermarket bumpers may require minor drilling for accessories or slight bracket adjustments.
What's the actual weight difference between OEM and aftermarket bumpers, and how does it affect my truck?
Aftermarket chrome and stainless steel bumpers typically weigh 15-30% more than OEM painted steel bumpers, adding approximately 20-40 pounds depending on the model. This additional weight is negligible for vehicle performance but provides better impact protection. Heavy-duty bumpers with integrated tow hooks or reinforced designs may add 50-75 pounds, which some drivers prefer for added durability and functionality in commercial applications.
Do these bumpers come with mounting brackets and hardware, or do I need to reuse my old parts?
Most replacement bumpers come with new mounting brackets and grade 8 hardware included. However, some economy models may require you to reuse existing brackets if they're in good condition. Each product description clearly states what's included. We recommend inspecting your current brackets for rust or damage before ordering. Replacement bracket sets are available separately if needed, and we stock stainless steel hardware kits for customers wanting maximum corrosion resistance.
