Frequently Asked Questions About International S2100-S2300 Frame Nut Covers

Will these frame nut covers fit my specific International S2100-S2300 truck model and year?

Our frame nut covers are designed to fit International S2100-S2300 series trucks from model years 1989-2010. They accommodate the standard frame rail bolt patterns used across these models. However, if your truck has aftermarket modifications to the frame or non-standard bolt spacing, we recommend measuring your bolt pattern before ordering. Standard spacing is typically 3.5 inches between centers. Contact our support team with your VIN if you need help confirming compatibility.

What material are these nut covers made from, and how long will they last?

We offer frame nut covers in two materials: chrome-plated ABS plastic and 304 stainless steel. The chrome-plated ABS options provide good durability at an economical price point and typically last 3-5 years with proper care. The stainless steel versions offer superior corrosion resistance and can last 10+ years, making them ideal for trucks operating in harsh weather conditions or coastal areas with salt exposure.

How difficult is the installation process, and what tools do I need?

Installation is straightforward and typically takes 30-45 minutes for a complete set. You'll need a socket wrench set (usually 3/4" or 7/8" sockets), and we recommend having penetrating oil on hand for rusty bolts. The covers install directly over your existing frame bolts - no drilling or modifications required. Each set includes detailed instructions, and most customers report being able to complete the installation without professional help.

What styles and finishes are available for these frame nut covers?

We stock several popular styles including pointed spike, rounded dome, and flat-top designs. Finish options include mirror-polished chrome, brushed stainless steel, and powder-coated black. The pointed spike style in chrome remains our best seller for its classic semi-truck appearance. All finishes are weather-resistant, though chrome requires more frequent cleaning to maintain its shine compared to stainless steel options.

How many nut covers come in a set, and will I have enough for my truck?

Our standard sets include 20 pieces, which covers the typical frame rail configuration on International S2100-S2300 trucks. This accounts for 10 bolts per side on most models. Some extended wheelbase trucks or those with additional frame modifications may require extra covers. We recommend counting your visible frame bolts before ordering, and individual covers are available for purchase if you need more than the standard 20-piece set.
