Cb Antenna Mounting With Camper shell.
 

First,
I am sorry.
Probably posted in wrong section of forums.

I searched and found nothing.

Looking to mount a cb antenna on my truck.

It has a camper shell.

Help me out.
God bless yuns!

There are mounts that bolt to th stake hole in the corner of the bed and stick out about 4-5 inches.

Like so:

Search for an Alon Mount, he's a member on here and makes a run of them when there's a demand.

Or get one that goes between the fender and hood. someone has one on here I'll look and see if I can find who it is.

Both Shane and I have them:

I think Matt (Fireranger) has one too but his Avatar is small and hard to see

First:
I need to get up an avatar pic up.
Im going to say that I have been on here a year,
and my intentions at first were greedy;p;p;p
HAHA...
I planned on joining,
getting what I needed,
and leaving!!!

BUT THAT HAS BEEN 1 Year ago!

HAHA

Last month made my 1 year aniversary with my baby,
and I plan on keeping her until the odometer stops.

You all are very helpful in this forum.

And I plan on taking some pics of my truck for you all, once I complete all my mods!

But anyways,
done rambling....


SO WHERE CAN I FIND THESE MOUNTS AT?

Ive already fooled with magnetic mounts,
and personally,
i think they look like crap!!!

Plus,
thanks to the
"Drive-Thru"
via our local McDonalds,
I found out they aint too stable!!!!

The firestik stake hole mount like jrpro130 has can be bought anywhere over the internet i got mine at a local CB shop

The Firestik stake hole mounts are very nice. I've seen Stone's and if I hadn't already bought an Alon mount I would've gotten the Firestik mount.

Hey!!!
IVE GOT THE SAME BOX!!!
WALLY WORLD SPECIAL!!!

LOL!

Ordered my mount today,
thanks you guys.
Just hope it works for my application!

are you mounting it on the step side ranger in your avatar? if so i dont think that mount will work, you need bracket to metal, and you cant fake a good ground by running a jumper wire to ground. it needs to be metal to metal

I now know this!!!
THIS BRACKET WILL NOT MOUNT ONTO THE STEPSIDE ANYWAYS!!!!
NO STAKEHOLES!!!!!

I love my Alon mount but it needs repainted after this hellacious winter we had.

I don't even own a CB anymore. All my two-ways are disgustingly more expensive and harder to use. But if I were to get one, i would definitely get the Alon mount!

Depending on when you ordered, I am now using a different paint so it should hold up a bit better now

About 6-7 months ago? I'll just sand it down and throw some primer and flat black on it.
