Frequently Asked Questions About International S1700-S1900 Steering Parts & Acc.

What kinds of steering components are included in this category?

This category covers steering-related parts and accessories for International S1700 and S1900 model trucks, including items such as steering wheels, steering columns, tilt and telescoping hardware, horn buttons, steering wheel covers, and related mounting hardware. Product listings will specify the exact part type, so check each item's description for the specific component included.

Will these steering parts fit my specific S1700 or S1900 truck?

Fitment can vary depending on the model year and cab configuration of your truck, since International produced these models over a long production run with some design changes. Always check the listed specifications, dimensions, and any noted year ranges on each product page, and compare them against your existing steering component before ordering. If you are unsure, having your VIN or original part number on hand can help confirm compatibility.

Are these parts new, used, or reconditioned?

Our inventory includes a mix of new aftermarket parts and quality used take-offs sourced from trucks in our salvage yards. Each product listing will clearly state the condition of the item, along with photos when applicable, so you can see exactly what you are purchasing before you buy.

How difficult is it to install a replacement steering wheel or column part?

Installation difficulty depends on the specific part. Simple accessories like steering wheel covers or horn buttons are generally straightforward and can be installed with basic hand tools. Steering wheels, columns, and tilt mechanisms are more involved and may require disconnecting the horn wiring, airbag components if equipped, and battery power before starting work. We recommend consulting your truck's service manual or having a qualified technician perform the installation, especially for anything involving the steering column itself.

Do these steering parts need to meet any safety or DOT requirements?

Steering components are safety-critical parts of your truck, so it's important to inspect any replacement part for wear, cracks, or damage before installation. While we do our best to describe the condition of every part accurately, it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure any steering part you install meets applicable DOT and FMCSA safety standards for your vehicle. If you have questions about a specific part's suitability, our team is available to help before you complete your purchase.
