Existing mount with Touratech cradle:


 DSLR camera rigs use clamps for 15mm rod diameters. These clams are cheap and offer 1/4x20 threaded sockets that a RAM ball can be mounted in. New 15mm rod from McMaster.com machined to match Enduro Engineering's stock rod:

DSLR clamp hardware parts were powder coated black to help prevent corrosion.

New crossbar in place with clamps and RAM mount:

  2. Email me...kirbseepe@yahoo.com.com. The rod came in 6' and I have over 4' of that left. I'll contact my machinist and see on $$. We both work cheap.
