Fender Mount Question
Im trying to deceide where to mount the antennas on a 09 Sahara.
Im thinkign about the Cool Tech for the cb and was thinking about mounting a Comet SBB 224 dual band antenna on the fender. Any ideas as to who makes a fender mount ?:dontknow2: Also considered using windshield light brackets for the antennas.:thinking: Thanks. |
Check out Diamond Antenna and see if any of the mounts they offer would work..

Thanks for the replies.
After posting the question, dug in the garage in junk area and found a 3/8X24 mount Iv used in a past installation. Is there an antenna that would work on a 3/8 X 24 stud? If so, Iv found one solution Thanks again. |
I got the Diamond K400C. It is a lip mount. Mounted it to the passenger side of the tailgate between the hinges as high as possible. When I got it my intent was to mount it on top of the taigate lip but it has a tab sticking out that prevents it from going there. .rfparts.com/diamond/k400c.html shows a pic. You can see the tab pointing down in the center of the mount. I might take a grinder to the tab and resolve that small obstacle.
Or...TruckSpec TS-102B Side Body Antenna Mount. cableorganizer.com/outlet/DAS-TS-102B.html I considered something like that but could not bring myself to start drilling holes. Also considered making or modding winshield brackets. Right now I only have a HT, VX-7R at 5W max. If/when I get a mobile rig I don't want 50W within arms reach of me or right in my passengers face. "Out of sight, out of mind." |
3/8 X 24 is pretty much standard for CB. Any FireStik should work.

Vern,
FWIW, Im using a VX6 on a mag mount at the moment but looking for something more permanent. |
Keep me posted on what you figure out and or do. I am always open to new ideas. Right now my biggest limitation is the 7' garage door opening. Yeah, I'm one of those.
You ever up on Wins? |
I'm using a diamond k400snmo mount on the hood for my dual band mobile antenna - works great, and the hood can still be raised without any interference between the antenna and the body or side mirror.
