Default Thanks for the write-up

Thanks for the write up, it made the decision to purchase this a easy one. So far I love it. My Galaxy Note 4 fits just fine, and I love that you can use the tripod screw and the phone at the same time, perfect for mounting a GoPro or similar camera which is what I did with it. A few pictures I snapped real quick, will try to get some better ones some other time.

Default Tablet

Anybody know if a Ram Mount ball socket mount for a tablet will work for this?

Default Warranty

The best part of buying Rugged Ridge is the warranty. I bought their seat covers and they faded after two summers. I called to ask about it and they sent me new ones no questions asked. So if that ever strips out with 5 years you will get a new one so I see no need for nut serts.

TemplarAZ,

Looks great. How's the stability of the GoPro Video with the phone on the mount. Other vids I've seen with this mount (like below) are extremely shaky.

Default Gps mount

My GPS Mount tips, a bit of superglue fixed the issue.

Yes, if you buy the Ram ball that's threaded for 1/4-20: Ram Mount 1/4-Inch-20 Female Threaded Hex Hole with 1-Inch Ball https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009GLW1PG..._RH3rxbED137W4

Get a tripod adapter for your GoPro and thread it on, then mount the GoPro
