i tried qualcom but they had gone home by the time i called,and the local international truck dealer wants a little over 300 dollars for theres,im trying to reach the shop at the company to see what they know,,,as far as the welding shop how can i find the dimensions of the bolt patern so they can build it,,,,,,,ill try to call qualcom,and my company tomorrow,,,,and if anyone has any idea of the dimensions for the bolt pattern i would like to know because that would most likely be my cheapest route through the welding shop,,,thx for the advice

My preference is a 4X4 metal post with a platform on top to mount dish. They go on the drivers side. Get a can of spray paint before they mount it so it matches your truck. They bolt up where your side faring extends. This way they don't drill into your truck also this is fast and easy. Just look around and sure you will see what I am talking about

Just go to the company you want to lease to and ask to see one of the units. Take a piece of paper or cardboard and trace the base and bolt pattern. That's what I did and had a friend fabricate a mount that fits into my loadlock holder. Works and looks great and cost me $125.

I don't know what you want to install it on. I have mine on my whale tail (roof faring thing), it's an AMA 67 from Qualcomm and was $125 or so direct, they overnighted it to me. They offer a lot of different mounts, mine is marked as a 93-?? Peterbilt bracket although it's not on a Pete.
