Quick Overview

This mounting kit was specifically for 1997 - 2006 Jeep Wranglers. The stainless steel mount attaches to the front fender lip under the vehicle's hood and can be mounted on either side of the vehicle. You won't be able to see any mounting holes or hardware after installation, because everything is hidden under the hood. This Firestik mini-kit also includes 18' of quality FireRing CB coax with a low-profile, weather-resistant ring connection. Recommended for antennas up to 4' tall.

Additional Information

Model / SKU:	Firestik MK-J4R
Recommended for:	Mounting a CB antenna on the hood of a 1997 to 2006 Jeep Wrangler. Recommended for antennas up to 4' tall. For newer models please see this 2007+ hood mount for Jeeps.
Compatible with:	All CB radios, and all fiberglass and center-load antennas that use a standard 3/8" x 24 threaded base.
Installation Notes:	Important Note: The PL-259 connector (radio screw-on end) is supplied in this kit but is NOT installed on the coax cable. This allows you to route the cable into the vehicle through a smaller (0.375") hole. After placing the connector on the coax, you'll need to solder the center to the PL connector. When mounting the bracket, you'll need to drill two 1/4" holes in the inner fender lip. A 12-gauge, 2" x 3/4" support plate installs on the bottom edge of the fender to strengthen the mount. We supply you with 1/4-20" stainless steel bolts, nuts and washers to secure the bracket to the vehicle. We recommend mounting the bracket at least 8" (20cm) from the rear edge of the fender, where the mount will have more support. All installation hardware will be hidden under the hood.
Mount Location:	Hood / Fender
Stud Type:	Lug (Ring and Terminal)

Details

Firestik CB Antenna Mount: These mounts were designed for 1997 -2006 Jeep Wrangler models. The mount lets you install your antenna on either side of the vehicle. The mount and support bracket are made from 12-gauge (0.109") stainless steel. Once installed, you won't see any mounting holes. All mounting hardware -- also stainless steel -- is hidden under the vehicle's hood. Although these mounts are made for newer Wrangler models, the mounting concept is very basic, and the mounts will likely work on pre-1997 Jeeps as well. Mount includes a standard 3/8" x 24 threaded antenna mounting stud.

If you plan on using your vehicle on severe terrain, you should move the mount forward (i.e., closer to the fender bolt) for added stability. The Jeep fender design leaves a large portion of the fender unsupported near the windshield.

The upper bracket is 2" (51mm) wide and 3" (76mm) long. A slight angle on the inside edge of the bracket follows the angle of the hood line. To mount the bracket, you'll need to drill two 1/4" holes in the inner fender lip. A 12-gauge, 2" x 3/4" support plate installs on the bottom edge of the fender to strengthen the mount. We supply you with 1/4-20" stainless steel bolts, nuts and washers to secure the bracket to the vehicle.

Note: The rear part of the fender on newer Jeeps does not have the support found in earlier models. On these vehicles, we recommend mounting the bracket at least 8" (20cm) in front of the rear edge of the fender, where it has sufficient support. If you mount it too far back, or if the rear part of the fender is not given additional support, the fender will flex from any whipping action of the antenna, depending on antenna size.

I installed this on my 2000 wrangler in 2005. It's holding up like new! Perfect place to keep an eye on the antenna. (Posted on October 10, 2012)

Best option for Wranglers
Review by Daniel Lindholm

Overall Rating

This is the number one antenna mount for your Wrangler. It is simple to install, guarantees a strong electrical ground and provides for constant visualization of your antenna system. Just remember to measure twice and drill once, to include the diameter of FireSticks "Fire Ring." I'd purchase another with no hesitation whatsoever. (Written 3/2/2009).
