I just installed my new bumper and I'm having to relocate my CB antenna. I was looking at the Quadratec Rock It mounting plate that mounts behind the brake light. It says there is some drilling involved. Can any one who has used this product tell me what is being drilled. I would prefer not to drill anything important on my jeep. If there is an other mounting plate that works better please let me know. Thanks for the help.

I purchased a bumper from bumsbumpers. I had him add a tab for my antenna. The only problem is that my Hi-Lift jack now swings in to my antenna. I'll see if I can gets some picks of it. Also, does any one of our corp sponsors have an antenna bracket in stock or do I have order on-line? Thanks for all the feedback.

The aluminum mirror mount style brackets I have found are the best/cheapest way to mount an antennae. Basically it is an L bracket with another piece to go around a side mirror. It also has the antennae mounting stud with the nylon insulator. If you are mounting it to a flat surface you use the L portion only. It does require drilling some holes but that is the best way to mount it anyway. A good ground is critical for a CB antennae to work. Mounting to the bumper is usually best.
You can pick these up pretty cheap at most any truck stop or Radio Shack.
