Whip Flag Mount!

[Crinale]

Well, my 4runner is now ready for any new regulations at pismo, and for other off-road parks that require whips... ill let my pics talk




yes, i know the bolt isnt torqued down enough to compress the lock washer here, it is now...





Its a 4.5' fiberglass whip (actually a cut down 7&#39, with a standard ATV flag mount, bolted to some aluminum plate i had laying around from my cruiser lift, and cb mount... I just hope that plastic piece it is mounted to is strong enough

I just put one on my cb if need be.

what is it mounted to? i cant tell from the pics

[Crinale]

its mounted to the support for the rear "wing"... (The black thing that pushes air downward past the open rear window to keep exhaust fumes out)

I will have to see if this works for a 3rd Gen 4Runner, did you buy a mount and modify it to fit?

no, i bent a piece of aluminum strip to 90 degrees, then used the backing plate from my cb antenna mount i bought (i didnt need it for where i was mounting my cb)... since the piece i attached it to is plastic i figured the backing plate was necessary here. The only things i bought here were the actual flag whip mount (from an atv store) and the whip itself

cool cool thanks for clarifying

[Crinale]

Since the Pismo Jambo is coming up, I took some new pictures of the mount without the flag in it for an example to those of you looking to build a hard mount... much better quality (not blurry)

I guess I can add to this thread.

Whip flag mount on a stock Tacoma tailgate. I accept donations for my hard efforts in design.

DIRECTIONS:
1. Open tailgate.
2. Insert flag.
3. Close tailgate.
4. Jump your truck on the biggest dune possible and adjust flag.
