Dodge Ram/Dakota Antenna Fender Mounts

Post by Station House Products »

Anyone know where to get them? Quite a pain in the ass modifying a regular flat fender mount. Thanks in advance for any help.

Radiall/Larsen shows them in a two year old catalog I have in the shop, if that helps. I imagine the other major antenna mfrs would probably have something similar.

Did this on a Dakota a few years ago. With a vice, you can make a nice little form-fitting bend in the flat bracket and the hood will close over it perfectly.

Them: "A very nice CB at 900Mhz speed!"

Thanks for the replies fellas. The reason I am looking for them is because I want to get away from the old hammer and vise trick. Beats them up pretty bad and a customer doesn't want that on a new install. As for Kens Electronics, thanks for the suggestion, but $9.95 a piec is quite a bit more than they should be selling for. wx4cbh, if you could get me the Larsen part number, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again to all.
