Sneaky Good Sprinter Upgrade (Mounting!)
The Coolest Sprinter Van Upgrade You Didn't Know You Needed
At Owl Vans, we pride ourselves on offering some of the most innovative and functional products for your Sprinter Van adventures. Sometimes, though, we come across a product that’s so brilliant, we just have to share it with the community. Today, I’m excited to talk about one of those products: magnetic mounts for traction boards, like Max Tracks or Action Tracks, that are easy to install on your Sprinter Van without drilling.
The Problem with Roof-Mounted Traction Boards
Many people mount their traction boards high up on roof racks, which seems like a great idea—until you actually need to get them off. Unless you're over 7 feet tall (and let’s face it, most of us aren't), it can be a real hassle to reach up there, especially when you're in a tough situation off-road. That’s why this new solution caught my eye—it allows you to easily mount your Max Tracks or Action Tracks on the side of your Sprinter Van for quick access, right where you can reach them.
The Ingenious Design
This innovative product was created by a van enthusiast in Switzerland who clearly understood the challenges we face out in the wild. The system uses magnets that are coated in a rubberized material, providing a strong hold while protecting your Sprinter Van’s exterior from scratches or damage. These magnetic mounts can hold your Max Tracks or Action Tracks securely, and they attach to the side of your van without any drilling.
What’s even cooler? The traction boards pop off with a firm pull when you need them, but they stay securely in place while you’re driving, even on rough terrain. I gave it a try myself, and let me tell you, you do need to give it a good pull—those magnets are strong!
Simple, Flexible Mounting
One of the greatest advantages of this system is its flexibility. You can place your traction boards anywhere on your Sprinter Van. Whether you want them on the side, next to your ladder, or even in a different vertical configuration, it’s up to you. The convenience of this mounting system means you’ll never be stuck struggling to reach your traction boards when you need them most.
Extra Security Options
While the magnetic mounts make it incredibly easy to access your traction boards, they also offer a subtle level of security. Most people won’t realize that the boards are magnetically attached; they’ll likely assume they’re bolted in. However, if you’re concerned about theft or just want an extra layer of security, you can easily run a cable or strap through your ladder or rear storage locker to lock them in place.
Perfect for Sprinter Van Lovers
Now, here’s the fun part: these mounts make a great gift for the Sprinter Van enthusiast in your life. Whether it's for a birthday, holiday, or just because, this could be the perfect stocking stuffer. The mounting system is not only functional but adds a sleek, practical touch to any Sprinter Van. And let’s be honest, who wouldn’t appreciate a gift that combines safety and style?
Magnetic Attraction at Its Best
I can’t say enough about how awesome these magnetic mounts are for traction boards on your Sprinter Van. They're simple, effective, and a real game-changer for anyone who enjoys off-road adventures. If you're looking for a way to upgrade your Sprinter Van and make your off-roading trips easier, this is a must-have.
