    Hey guys, was wondering if your bed rail accessory mount tabs can hold a 102" whip CB antenna with a spring base? I know those antennas move around a lot.

    I think our accessory brackets on their own are capable of it, however the tie down rail would likely flex/twist with the antenna movement and that I would be more concerned about over time. Our bed corner tie down bracket would be a much more solid option but it would also require you to purchase and install an OEM front tie down track like the 05-15 Tacomas came with. The tie down essentially reinforces the bed corner and links the front and side rails together for more strength and rigidity.

    Edit: link to corner tie downs (same between tacoma/tundra) https://www.relentlessfabrication.c...oducts/07-tundra-bed-corner-tie-down-brackets

    Thanks for the quick response. Might just got with a Firestick antenna to use with these brackets. Looking forward to getting them!!

    Thanks again.
