An industrial materials handling vehicle including a vehicle body supported by steer wheel and wheel assemblies, a bumper coupled to the body, and a sensor accommodating bumper mount mounted to the vehicle body and/or bumper, the body and the bumper cooperatively defining a steer wheel access opening. The sensor accommodating bumper mount comprises a bumper mount housing with complementary steer wheel access opening, a sensor assembly mount removably mounted to the bumper and/or bumper mount housing, and a sensor assembly mounted to the sensor assembly mount. The sensor assembly and mount at least partially obstruct the steer wheel access opening and complementary steer wheel access opening when the sensor assembly mount is mounted to the bumper and/or bumper mount housing, providing at least partial access to the steer wheel assembly through the steer wheel access opening and the complementary steer wheel access opening when the sensor assembly mount is unmounted.
