Thats a bigass flag, but i'd consider most CB antenna mounts to be stout enough..depending on the style however. The flexing is what will kill most mounts. A "real" rear bumper would be the next choice.
yeah, i dont want to go that big, but thats the general idea.
im still running the stock bumper and i dont want a hitch mount pole. i have the arizona cb mount... and it flops around with just the antenna on it, dont think it would hold with the flag pulling on it.
ill have to look in the jeep, but maybe u-bolting the pole to the rear roll bar?
I have a CB antenna mount that attaches to the body, and the antenna doesn't flex around (it only sticks up about 3-4" over the top, so hitting things isn't usually a problem) - it would easily support a flag.
I think the mount is made by workman, or something like that - and requires drilling a hole in the body. I mounted it next to the tail light.
I was working the front gate at a hippy festival and my buddy was bringing me beers (on ice) in the 5 gal bucket on his bike. That's a friend! That's a damn good pic of a Jeep and a Flag though aint it?
Yeah it's a bigass flag. The wind was RIPPING in the late winter/early spring when that pic was taken. There's a story behind that flag but I dont wanna put it in print. I dont wanna goto jail.
I have a cargo rack over the spare tire which made a good mount. I used PVC pipe, and on one end put a cap with a small hole for any water to weep out of. I used zip ties to attach them to the cargo rack. The Jeep flag is a 2.5 x 3.5 made from nylon. I drilled a hole through the pipe and wooden dowel rod and secure it with a locking pin so the wind doesn't take it. I have an American Flag that goes on the right side.
