Default What Kind of CB Mount is this?

Can you all tell me what kind of mount this guys has on his TJ that allows his antenna to wobble like that? I'm hitting trees all over the trail and the loud banging noise is getting a little annoying

You can really notice the antenna movement around the 1 minute mark. Thanks in advance!

Most kits such as the FireStick II have a spring at the base of the antenna which is what allows it to travel as it does. The mount itself could be custom.

Yeah, it looks like he just has a spring at the base of his antenna.

I have the heavy duty spring on my Firestick. I actually wish it was a little stiffer as the antenna will bang on my tire carrier when wheeling.
