Thanks for the suggestion. Just checked it out. Looks like a good option, but I'd still be a little worried about it coming loose when I'm driving the truck hard. I'd also like the flexibility to mount a lowrance down the line if I ever feel like upgrading to that. But I'll definitely recommend it to my friend who's just looking for something to hold his work tablet.

Now that suspension work on my truck is almost wrapped up, I've been planning a couple off-road trips and realized it would be useful to have actual satellite/topographic maps pulled up for navigation. Was originally thinking a suction cup or something to the windshield, but I wanted something a little sturdier so the tablet wouldn't come flying off if I hit a jump or am on a washboard road for a while. A follower on Instagram mentioned he was interested in the mount so he could have his work tablet mounted up with all the info he needed. It'll mount to the pocketed tray that's clipped/screwed into the dash. I'm about to send the files out to get laser cut and bent and will post pictures once I have it installed in the truck. If anyone is interested or has any input let me know and I could probably put together a group buy to bring down the price to have parts made. If you're interested let me know the make and model of tablet as well so I can keep track to get a better idea of pricing. As of now, if a single mount was made it would cost ~$150-170. With a quantity of 4 or 5 the price could probably come down to $110-130.

It'll possibly rub slightly towards the firewall at full lock. Removing the bracket behind the mudflap will clear up some more space. Pretty much guaranteed to rub while at full bump and turning. If you stay mostly on the streets it won't be much of an issue though.
