Description — 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL/JLU Tire Carrier Antenna Mount Bracket
The JL-1100 is the antenna mount for 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL and JLU owners who want the most solid, confidence-inspiring mount possible—period.
It bolts to the tire carrier (or where the tire carrier was), which is a big deal. Many mounts attach to the tailgate hinges, and that creates two problems: removing hinge bolts can chip paint, and hinge-mounted brackets can wear paint away over time. Once that happens, “just remove it later” stops being a real option. Mounting at the tire carrier location avoids those headaches and gives a stronger mounting foundation.
This bracket is compatible with all factory tire carriers and most aftermarket tire carriers. It’s designed to handle the real-world loads of antennas, whips, and trail vibration without feeling flimsy.
Compatibility is broad: CB antennas, whip antennas, LED whips, and FRS/GMRS antennas are all supported, and it’s also compatible with NMO antenna mounts.
We aim to use aluminum wherever we can, but the JL-1100’s design and placement demand extra strength—so we went stainless steel. Competitors often use non-stainless steel to save cost, then rely on powder coat to hide the rust risk. We don’t gamble with your satisfaction. Stainless steel plus a double wrinkle-black powder coat gives you a durable, corrosion-resistant mount built for long-term use.
Because tire carriers and wheel offsets vary, the JL-1100 is offered in driver-side and passenger-side versions. These are not interchangeable—installing the wrong side can cause clearance issues. Choose the correct side for your carrier/wheel setup.
Have peace of mind when you install it: it’s built to stand up to whatever you throw at it, without damaging your Jeep. Built for Function, not Fashion.
