Flag mounting places.

[cgalpha08]

Hey all, so i know most ORV parks require an orange flag to be flown above the roof line of the vehicle while wheeling. I am wondering how you all attach you flags to your vehicles without drilling permanent holes into the Hummer. I know ive seen some of you attach them to the spare tire mount, or the tow hooks, so if you could please post up how you do yours, that would be great. I attempted to have mine simply hanging off of the cb antenna, well that resulted in a snapped cb antenna
Thanks for the info in advance.

Doc sells brackets that mount to the tow hooks. :link:

I think mounting in the front is the point so you can be seen coming up a steep hill or about to come down one. I saw some of this action at Attica where we were all going all over the place. Last thing 4speed said before we took off to the dunes was don't run into each other lol
In the back might be too late!

Good point, i ordered one of docs brackets, so the next time i hit up the badlands ill be ready.

I just took a flag and attached it to my CB antenna. Worked great.

Yea thats what i had but my firestick doesnt really bend much, im just looking for something that bends a little better then my cb antenna. Plus my cb antenna is now behind my spare so it is more protected.

Is it a state thing?

I know here in the SW, a orange flag isn't required for street legal vehicles with tags like our Hummers, it certainly wasn't an issue for me in NV, CA or AZ.

That being said, i find a good hard point is the bumper, or get either a trailer hitch mount or some sort of c-clamp that can bolt onto a roll bar, roof rack, etc.

I think it does depend on the state, or maybe just the OHV park. In Oregon the only places we are required to have a flag is at the sand dunes.

It's per Park requirements. Some parks require you to have them mounted above the roof, most require on teh front bumper, some it doesn;t matter at all if you have them. When I used to go up to MI to teh Dunes, we had to run a flag in front of the truck...which they sold at the gate before you were allowed in with your vehicle.

Out here in CO, I have not been to an area requiring them as of yet. I like the one that doc has...looks good.
