Backwoods Adventure Mods Scout Bumper - How to Install on your Sprinter Van
In this Video I install our new backwoods adventure mods scout bumper in the sprinter van. the installation is pretty straight forward with the exception of installing the lower bumper brackets which requires loosening the front clip and moving the core support with the radiator and intercooler forward a couple inches to get on of the bolts out. other than that the installation was pretty straight forward with basic hand tools and a jack.

Thank you, you guys have a great product, built well and makes the van look great, I added some KC HiLites 6 inch slim light leds to round off the package!

@@ramblingambition Very cool!
That's pretty impressive. Especially alone. I had a similar one installed at Owl Vans in Mesa, Az. I knew I couldn't handle that job. Looks great!

Thanks, it was a bit of a wrestling match but its doable. Thanks again
Question: did you attach the wire that was clipped behind the OEM bumper to the Scout bumper or was it tied to something else? Thanks.
@ramblingambition

The wire was tied to a piece of front clip so I just re- fastened it there in about the same position that it was on the factory bumper but not to the scout bumper
Question: Are the longer brackets provided by Backwoods needed for all Sprinters or only to specific year model? The reason for this question is the installation video by Backwoods didn’t mention this. Thanks.

So my van is a 2 wheel drive van and the longer brackets are for the 2 wheel drive vans since they dont have the cradle that holds the front drive axle. I guess most people buy the 4x4 versions and their bumpers fit both models so the longer brackets make up for the front end structure difference in the 2 wheel drive version. Hope that helps

Thank you. That’s helpful to know. I was a little taken back by the longer brackets.

@bhduong2008 good, yeah I can see how that would be, when I first put the bumper up to test fit it i had a small panic attack because the bottom of the bumper attachments we super short then I unpacked the drop brackets for the subframe and took a deep breath of relief, but for the 4x4 you dont need them and I looked up the kits and they are not included in hardware kit for the 4x4
