I received my mount from Frontrunner today. It’s pretty nice. But I would expect that from Frontrunner. I do think it would work best with a no ground plane antenna. The powder coat is pretty thick and applied very well. I can see how these may require some sanding to get a ground.
The hole is to small for a NMO mount, but a PL-259 works perfectly. A small amount of drilling will be required for a NMO.
The plastic cap Frontrunner puts on every nut that leaves the factory is in the way to screw the antenna wire on, but there’s enough room once it’s removed.
It looks good mounted to the rack. There is a screw and nut to tighten on the swivel to lock it in place if so desired.
It started snowing pretty hard while I installed this, so I didn’t get the ground strap installed yet. To be continued after the snow quits!
