Thank you for choosing Backwoods Adventure Mods for your bumper! We value our
customers and the off-road lifestyle.
Safety First! Thoroughly read all instructions and warnings before beginning the installation.
Use your own judgment and, if necessary, have the installation done by a professional.
This bumper is intended for off-road use only. The owner assumes all liability for installation
and use. Any sensor will have an altered view when installed in an after-market bumper.
Hardware Kits Included:
BW00-0040

Remove Original Bumper:
1. For a completed look, you'll want to reuse a small part of the OEM bumper cover
(above the lower door hinge). Using a marker, make a horizontal mark 4¾" down from
the top, so that your mark is in line with the bottom of the hinge. You'll use this mark
to trim the bumper cover in Step 3 of the installation. (Picture 1 & 2)
