These mounts were designed around the new Jeep Wranglers body style (97-99). The mount allows the antenna to be mounted on either the left or right side of the vehicle. The stainless steel mount and support bracket are made from 12 gauge
(0.109") stainless steel. After the mount is installed, there will not be any
visible mounting holes.
All mounting hardware (also stainless steel) is hidden
under the vehicles hood. Even though there were no installations on earlier
model years, the mounting concept is very basic and the probability of these
mounts working on pre-1997 Jeeps is high. Both mounts are complete with a
standard 3/8"-24 threaded antenna mounting stud.
The upper bracket is 2" (51mm) wide and 3" (76mm) long. A slight angle on the inside edge of the bracket follows the angle of the hood line. To mount the bracket, two 1/4" holes need to be drilled in the inner fender lip. A 12 gauge, 2" x 3/4" support plate installs on the bottm
edge of the fender to add to the strength of the mount. We supply you with
1/4-20" stainless steel bolts, nuts and washers to secure the bracket to the
vehicle.
This mount may be used with heavy-duty Firestik antennas up to 48" (122cm).
