Antenna or LED Fog Light Mounting Bracket from Rhino-Rack, Folding, Fits Pioneer Platform, Vortex & Heavy Duty Bars, for CB Radio Antenna, LED Fog Lights, Truck LED Lights, & More (43196)

Really nice mount, heavy too.This is exactly what I needed to mount one of the antennas up high with the ability to fold down when not needed or when pulling into garage.

I went cheap and bought a bingfu mount. It did not last long and got flimsy. Rhino rack mount is beef 🥩.

Durable bracket, really easy to mount and use. Works well with the antenna for my WeBoost Drive Reach OTR.

I am a mechanical engineer. This doesn't mean I know much about radio, or anything really...., but when I look at this, I am incredibly disappointed and feel like my money was taken.1. The mount hole size is 17 mm which makes it a little difficult to adapt a standard 3/8 CB stud. You will have to use washers. You will also struggle to find a right angle 259 connector that does not interfere with the release mechanism unless you buy a premade, low-profile cable. I had to make multiple trips to my local radio store to find something that works. Another 10 mm of clearance and this would be a non-issue for any connector.2. The mount is made in China. I would understand the expensive price if it were produced locally in Australia or USA, but for being so expensive, this means Rhino rack is pocketing probably half the profits.3. The mount is heavy. While this is a good thing and something to appreciate, you need to be very careful if you drop the mount during install on your vehicle. You can very easily dent panels, gouge paint, shatter windows or even break the release handle. This is a very high possibility with new (low friction) satin powedercoat paint on the bracket. Which leads to my next point:4. If you accidentally drop the mount, you WILL shatter the plastic release handle because the mount is so heavy. Rhino Rack is very blunt with this and will not support or sell you a replacement handle. It was a little comical on how dismissive they were for an inquiry. Although this is probably easily replaced with another handle as it is threaded, still a big disappointment.5. This will really only fit Rhino Rack brand roof racks out of the box. Do not expect to be able to mount this to any Thule aero bars without trips to a hardware store.6. The pivot is poorly engineered. Although the the detent pin works great, the pivot itself relies on two bolts going through punched holes with nylock nuts on the end. Quite simply there is a very fine line between these nylock nuts being too tight and too loose. You have two options at that point: An antenna mount with 20° of slop , or an antenna mount that is impossible to swivel into position. I really really wish they would have used some nylon bushings or a shoulder bolt of some sort. With such slop, it really negates the use of such thick stamped steel. You may have just used extruded and poorly machined cheap aluminum at that point.TLDR: Poor design, expensive price, no parts support. Find another option.

Bought this a few months back for an antenna attached to an off-road roof rack. I like to tilt the antenna back when on the back roads so it doesn't get beat up. This mount has taken the brunt of the abuse and has held up through crashing brush and tree branches all summer so far. Got my fingers crossed the little plastic handle doesn't break, but that's the only plastic on it. The rest of the mount seems to be all hefty metal. I'm adding another antenna so I'll be buying another one soon!

Great design - easy to fold/unfold and optional screw can be used to tighten the hold. When the antenna is folded, I recommend a strap for the long end so the antenna doesn’t bounce.

The mounting hardware that are with it didn’t work with my Westin headache rack. It was easily solved with a stainless 5/16ths bolt and fender washer.

Really like the idea of a folding antenna mount. When I installed it, it was tight and had little play. Now there's play and rust on the thumb screw hole. My antenna wobbles back and forth while driving and it's really annoying.
