Frequently Asked Questions About International PayStar 5000 Sleeper & Related
What years and models are compatible with PayStar 5000 sleeper bumpers?
PayStar 5000 sleeper bumpers are designed to fit International PayStar models from 2007 to present. These bumpers are specifically engineered for PayStar 5000 series trucks with sleeper cabs. While the mounting patterns are generally consistent across these years, we recommend verifying your specific VIN and model configuration before ordering, as some special editions or custom configurations may have unique requirements.
Are these bumpers made from chrome-plated steel or stainless steel?
We offer PayStar 5000 bumpers in both materials. Chrome-plated steel bumpers provide a mirror-like finish at a lower price point but require regular maintenance to prevent rust and pitting. Stainless steel bumpers, while more expensive initially, offer superior corrosion resistance and maintain their appearance with minimal upkeep. Most customers operating in northern climates or coastal areas prefer stainless steel for its longevity.
What installation challenges should I expect when replacing my PayStar bumper?
Installation typically takes 2-4 hours for experienced technicians. Common challenges include aligning the bumper with existing frame holes, which may require minor adjustments if your truck has had previous damage or modifications. You'll need basic hand tools plus a torque wrench to meet the 150-175 ft-lbs specification for mounting bolts. Some customers report needing to slightly enlarge mounting holes due to frame variations. We strongly recommend having a second person assist with positioning during installation.
Do these bumpers come with mounting hardware and brackets?
Most PayStar 5000 bumpers ship as bumper-only units without mounting hardware. You'll need to reuse your existing brackets and bolts, or purchase a complete mounting kit separately. Grade 8 bolts are required for safe installation. If your current hardware shows signs of corrosion or wear, we recommend purchasing new mounting hardware to ensure proper fit and safety compliance.
What's the weight difference between standard and heavy-duty PayStar bumpers?
Standard PayStar 5000 bumpers typically weigh 85-95 pounds, while heavy-duty versions range from 110-130 pounds. The extra weight in heavy-duty models comes from thicker gauge steel (typically 12-gauge versus 14-gauge) and reinforced mounting points. This additional weight provides better protection in minor impacts but may slightly affect front axle weight distribution. Consider your typical hauling requirements and front axle weight limits when choosing between standard and heavy-duty options.
