lets see your flag pole mounts!

I dont claim to be a welder but this is the best i got....and not bad for my first time i think.

 

That's boss. You got a supply list? Anyway to do this without welding?!?

 

I made one been on truck for over a year now, I used an aluminum bracket I cut, some exhaust clamps and PVC tubing. Was really easy to make. Ill post pics tonight

 

OP, nicely done and good first post. What did you use on the back of the bracket to secure it into the track?

 

materials:

• 6" x 1 1/4" x 1/8" thick steel
• 6" x 1/2" x 1/8" thick steel
• 1 1/4" x 10" steel pipe
• 2- 1/4" x 1" stainless steel i-bolts with 1/4" locking nuts
• 2 bolts and springs that came with the rail tie downs
  
• 2 washers
  
• 2 M8-1.25 stainless steel wing nuts

As far as puting it together i welded it because i wanted to do something iv never done and it would be solid. im sure you can bolt the stuff together with some other hardware.
It is fastened to the rail by the stock T bolts....(not sure if thats what they are called but its what they look like)

 

I like it. I see more and more flags every day on trucks.

 

what do the springs do on the wing nuts?

 

They aren't that important just make it a little nicer to use in my opinion. Because the bolt looks like a T so u put it on when they are sideways push them in and rotate to get it to stay

 

Heck yes! Love it! I bet Old Glory flaps nice and strong driving down the road!

Cool mod. Very unique.
