Flag Stand/Mount Option

SBAR · October 18, 2017

Hey everyone, just wanted to throw this idea out there for anyone who has an interest in flying flags in the bed of their truck without any drilling or modification. The company that makes the stands is called "My American Truck". The photo above shows their "Rebel" Stand. I can take more photos of the flag mount if anyone has questions but they do have some photos and information on their website at "myamericantruck.us"

The stand is pretty awesome and is secured using only two ratchet straps. I have taken my truck at 65 + on the highway without any issues with this mounting system. I highly recommend this system to anyone who wants to fly a flag every once in awhile but does not want to do modifications to their truck bed.

Any questions do not hesitate to ask! I will take some photos of the stand and share them on this thread soon!

You can also mount a 2x4 or 2x6 across the bed. You just measure and cut then press in. The bed has small extrusions to keep it in place and the 2x4 stays pressure fit. Mount some pvc to the board and get some wooden dowels that are the same size as the inside of the pvc. I have some small holed drilled through the pvc and wooden dowel with a little pin that holds everything together. Taken on the highway at 75ish? No issue on the mount although one of the cheaper printed flags I've bought is almost trash.

Downside is that the 2x4 mounts by pressure fit so its not something you want to remove and install often. I just leave mine in as I don't use the bed daily and when I do it's not been an issue so far. Also a lot cheaper than $275.

For yall who don't mind drilling there is this option. I must admit, although pricey, it seems very well built and worth the money if I were to fly a flag all the time.

That looks like a very well built product. Good option for a more permanent instillation.

I made this receiver mount flag pole for my friend. Machined down two spots and weld on some rings that cut out of tubing to mount the tabs on to so the flag could spin freely and not get tangled up. Mounted it to my work truck for a few days to test it out before i handed it over.
