FireStik (MK-J4R) - Stainless Steel Jeep Hood Channel
Mount Mini-Kit, Jeep Fender Mount with Stud, 18ft
Fire-Flex Coax with PL-259/FireRing Termination
Description:
This kit includes a quality stainless steel mount and 18
ft (5.5m) of professional grade Fire-Flex coaxial cable
(with FireStik's exclusive Fire-Ring connector) all
in one package!
The mini-kit was specifically designed for the 1997 and
newer Jeep Wranglers. The mounting bracket attaches to
the front fender lip under the vehicles hood (either left
or right side). Through testing FireStik has found that
having the antenna in front of the driver is a better
option than the popular bumper type mounts. With the
mount in front, the driver has constant visual contact
with the antenna. There is nothing worse than breaking
your antenna in the middle of a trail run because you
were unable to see that it was getting into trouble.
FireStik also prefer to have the antenna on the drivers
side of the vehicle as most obstructions will be found
hanging over the outer edges of the roads or trails. If
the vehicle is being used over severe terrain, the mount
should be moved forward (closer to the fender bolt) for
added stability. The design of the Jeep fender leaves a
large portion of the fender unsupported near the
windshield.
All of the stainless steel mounting hardware (supplied)
is hidden under the hood. The bracket is 2" (51mm)
wide by 3" (76mm) long.
Mini-kits give you the freedom to create your own
personalized antenna kit. Any of the FireStik standard
3/8"-24 threaded antennas or accessories will screw
directly into the antenna stud. Pick any color FireStik,
FireStik II, Firefly, Road Pal, Scanner, 2-meter or
Mach-10 antenna up to 4' (1.2m) to complete your
installation. Each mini-kit contains a FREE microphone
hanger.
NOTE: The PL-259 connector (radio end) is supplied
in this kit but is not installed on the coax cable. This
allows the cable to be routed into the vehicle through a
smaller hole. A grommet is supplied. After the connector
is placed on the coax, the center conductor MUST be
soldered to the PL Connector.
NOTE: The rearward part of the fender on newer
Jeeps does not have the same support that was found in
earlier models. On these vehicles we recommend that the
bracket be mounted at least 8-inches (20cm) forward of
the rear edge of the fender where it has sufficient
support. If this is not followed, or if the rear part of
the fender is not given additional support, the fender,
dependent upon the antenna size, will flex from any
whipping action of the antenna.
