Question:
Hello I am trying to mount a mobile Ham Radio antenna to my 2019 Grand Cherokee. I have the E-Group package. The Base Kit RRRCP27-BK part that mounts towards the rear of the rack only has one M6 x 25mm screw holding the base to the rail. My thought that this can be a great place to mount an antenna. The antenna mount RR43196 can be swiveled downward to go into a carwash or removed. My concern is the base mount only has one M6 x 25mm screw. Is this base mount secured enough to the rail system to hold the antenna at highway speeds or damage the roof rack? I could use the front mount but the antenna is right next to the driver and make it noisy. Thank you for your help

Expert Reply:
The Antenna Mounting Bracket for Rhino-Rack Crossbars and Platforms # RR43196 that you mentioned can be used on the roof of your 2019 Grand Cherokee that has the E-Group roof rails but you do have to install a set of crossbars on the roof for the holder to attach to as it cannot mount directly to your flush rails.
So for that you'd need the Rhino Rack roof rack # RRVA126B-2, # RRRCL4, and # RRRCP27-BK and you'd be set. I attached an install video for this rack on a similar Cherokee with same roof design.
