Yeah the factory hooks should bolt on until you decide to go with something else  |

I have an old fairlead kicking around here... However, it's not a roller fairlead like you probably want.

got creative today and finally finished up my cb antenna mount...had to be able to pivot as it stick's up higher then the door on my garage...so i found a hood hinge from my 1995 neon i used to own that was begging to be chopped up lol.  after some cutting, grinding, sandblasting and powder coating, i finally have a mount that works great.    it will tilt over to the drivers side and only 6" sticks out off to the side...more then enough room to get it back in the garage....and best of all, no tools needed....just angle it and go.....that spring is also there to keep it from flopping around...and yes, it works good lol |

Yup! Like that idea... i pull in my garage, and i hear "whack whack whack whack whack" every time from the antenna bouncing off my roof. Lets me know I'm in far enough. |
