Just curious what you all have done about mounting antennas. I'm working on mounting my ham radio and cb. I was thinking about fabing a bracket bolted to the spare tire carrier for one. There are a couple other ideas in my head. Just looking for a better mouse trap. Any ideas?

This is basically what the teraflex mount looks like, except its powder coated and the one I have is for the right side.

I bought two spare tire mounts from Arizona Rocky Road (http://www.arizonarockyroad.com/antennamounts.html) for CB and 2M/440 antennas on my 4 door Rubicon. I routed a ground strap from inside the JK to a hinge bolt on the outside of the tailgate via the snap-on hole for the lower tailgate hinge cover. There are photos on one of my previous posts. I am hitting repeaters that I could not touch with the same antenna mounted on the left exterior beside the engine compartment on my old TJ.
