Regarding the Off-road flag; My roofrail had a rubber, I removed it and it has a thread. Now I am looking for an "adapter" (no idea if this is the correct word), to screw it in and on the other side for example the AOR offroad flag. This way I don't have to use a bracket. I don't know the size/type of the thread in my roofrail. Any recommendation where I can try? I tried a Nuts and Bolt store, but they were not very helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking something similar too but I could not find it. I think the only way to have something like that is to find a person who can cut and weld stuff. Since I was able to find something like that I came up with another idea for the flag. I bought a suction cup (attached) and I duck taped my flag to the suction cup. I have not tested it yet but it looks pretty rugged. We will see it on Friday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The turning workshop can sort such things if you have idea or threads I had made my bracket on a L shaped plate which is bolted on roof so I just stick the flag on the L bracket the pole has not went anywhere till now but have lost few flags 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I’m not sure about the size. It looks less than 10 mm but maybe I’m wrong. I’ll check tomorrow morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Xaf, the correct term is a "reducer hex nipple". Have a look below: https://www.amazon.ae/s?k=reducer+hex+nipple&ref=nb_sb_noss From the looks of it, this bolt is an M10. I think your thread in your roofrail is M12 but i am not sure. If so, then you need a hex reduce nipple from M10 to M12. A few months back i got some hydraulic hoses made by INFLEX, located in Al Quoz. 25.142727, 55.236064 These guys really should be able to point you in the right direction. I saw cabinets full with these things at their shop. 2 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmanuel Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 You can also go to Ramy automotive in Al-Quoz, maybe they sell mounts for LR4. Might be more expensive though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
