Reddit reviews Camco Hitch Mount Flagpole Holder, Fits Standard 2-Inch Hitch Receivers, Durable and Rust Resistant (51611)

Beautiful work, OP. It seriously looks like a real product.

For hams with a 2" hitch receiver, this works WONDERS as a base. Works great with the SOTA Beams telescoping pole, and I'm pretty sure the Jackite pole would fit as well (2.3" ID).

Get one that goes into your hitch. It'll be centered and easily removed.

Here's another one I just found:

I like stuff that'll fit into a hitch because its not a permanent modification. I'm not drilling holes in my vehicle. If I don't like the look of something I can simply remove it from the hitch and sell it.

I would recommend a flag pole hitch mount like this one: Camco 51611 Hitch Mount Flagpole Holder https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004IVGA0G and then get a flagpole in whatever length you need.

This might be your best bet. I've had it for a couple on months now and not too bad. Got up go 80 MPH multiple times with no problem. Use a 2" PVC pipe from Home Depot and spray paint it black then get two eyehook screws and call it a day!

I copied and pasted this from a different comment, I wanted you to know about this as well!

If you want to buy a flagpole mount, here's a good one on Amazon

Home made, here’s the link to the flagpole holder:

Also need the post, the flag, the cap to the post, and a three o-ring clamps. Two of the o-rings are are for the flag and one I put about midway up so I can lock down the post with ratchet straps to prevent swaying (makes it stable even on the highway)

I used this flag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000FA6BLC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_PIUhAbFC0RBT8


For the actual pole I bought a 4-5 foot fencing pole from Lowe's drilled some holes into it and bolted on some mounting clips for the flag then I spray painted the whole thing black... Oh and at the bottom there's a bolt that they give you to "secure the pole" but it's flimsy so I just went to Lowe's and bought a black hex key bolt and used that to actually secure it. Last thing I needed is the flag flying into the ocean lol

I used this from Amazon. Made it really simple. Camco 51611 Hitch Mount Flagpole Holder https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004IVGA0G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_JleIxb0T3VG59

Another ME chiming in here.

My prediction on FMA is you're gonna snap that flag pole right where those eyebolts pass through it. No fancy ass metal base would stop that.


I agree, get something proper: http://smile.amazon.com/Camco-51611-Hitch-Flagpole-Holder/dp/B004IVGA0G (plus is someone rear ends you, they can be tried for treason)
