  • Added the right height for mounting my Garmin Striker 4 to my Kayak
Style: Medium Arm
Beside this composite arm, I also purchased the RAM Track Ball with T-Bolt Attachment and the Circular Aluminum Drill Base Adapter with 1" Rubberized Ball from Amazon. I chose this length arm because I like to set my cooler in the front of my kayak and needed to extend the Garmin so I could see and access it over the cooler. This setup worked out great for me. This size of Ram mounting gear is lightweight and my Garmin comes in at about 8 oz. So everything is tight and secure. I don't recommend using this for heavy items. My whole setup with the Ram pieces and the Garmin is probably less than 1 lbs. It's attached to a dashboard system that unscrews and lifts right out of the kayak so I can leave everything attached as one piece. Makes it really easy to setup my kayak for a day on the water and its a fast tear down when I'm ready to go load up my gear and go home. ... show more

  • I found Ram mounts a few years ago and love them. Just purchased a couple more pieces
Style: Short Arm
I found Ram mounts a few years ago and love them. Just purchased a couple more pieces, so my review is copy and pasted from my updated review from a previous purchase. RAM mounts are still the best mount I've found. Not going to find anything better. Very simple design that's brilliantly executed. I've never been satisfied with other options such as suction cups or double sided tape mounts. They'll all fail at some point. Then a few years ago I discovered Ram mounts. Made my first purchase and I couldn't have been happier. I've now purchased multiples of the 1" ball for camera mounting over the years for various applications. My most current usage was to mount a 6" cell phone on the dash of a 2012 Camry for Pandora/Google Maps. I wanted something secure and adjustable, yet easy to remove. Ram fits the bill. For this setup, I used the following products (I'll supply links at the end): Ram Mount 1-Inch Ball with 1/4-Inch 20 Male Threaded Post for Cameras Ram Mount 2 x 1.7 Inches Base with 1-Inch Ball Ram Mount Composite Short Double Socket Arm for 1-Inch Ball Part of a Vastar Universal Smartphone Tripod Adapter 3/4" Phone and Fax Plastic Grommet Luckily enough, my Camry has a large section of trim around the clock on the dash. The whole thing comes out very easily. I removed the trim piece and disconnected the clock from it. Marked out my holes for the 2" x 1.7" Ram mounting plate. I mounted the base plate with black bolts to blend in with everything. I also sandwiched a small piece of black rubber shelf liner to eliminate any possible squeaking. Whilst the dash is fairly flat where I mounted it there is a very slight curve. The 1" ball mount for cameras get attached to the upper part of the Vastar Universal Smartphone Tripod Adapter, the short composite Ram arm connects it all together. I also drilled another hole in the clock trim piece to run a USB cable in-dash behind the radio. I used the 3/4" phone/fax grommet to finish it off and give a professional look. I couldn't be more happy with how this turned out. It's very easy to use and it's something that can be quickly removed if I don't want to leave it in the car. The only thing that stays behind is the mounting plate that's bolted to the dash and the USB cable. I think car's should come with something similar to this. It's not far from eye level yet doesn't block my view.

  • Faded
Style: Short Arm
The arm looks like it's been sitting in the sun for a long time. Even though the item came in a sealed package the arm looked faded. I tried washing it with just warm water but the arm still looked faded. When the arm is tighten all the way down the arm was still able to swivel. Granted there were no ball when it was screwed all the way down. I attached my camera to it and to the handle bar and fells like it will hold the camera in place just fine. Almost returned the arm because of the discoloration. ... show more

  • RAM Mounts are awesome!
Style: Short Arm
RAM Mounts are awesome! I use all of their products to mount my gear on all my vehicles, motorcycles, Kayaks and bicycles. With an unlimited selection of accessories with from their suction cup bases, arms, rod holder, etc. Many great uses for these products. In my picture on this review, I'm using a magnetic mount from WizGear that I glued to two ball mounts after removing the screw with the hex key and yes the depth can be raised or lowered for specific cameras, GPS and other electronic devices. I also used a third ball mount with Screw attached and a 1/2 bolt to attach it to a 30lb magnet all connect with an ARKON APT325MM Triple 25mm Ball Adapter and RAM Socket Arms that I use to hold my Smartphones on metal surfaces. The grip is great and holds extremely well. I'd buy again and again! ... show more

  • part of a very nice phone mount system for my motorcycle
Style: Short Arm
I bought this to attach my droid dna to the handlebars on my motorcycle. I needed 3 parts to make the mount work: u-bolt, double socket arm and x-grip. First, the u-bolt mounting base clamps to the handlebars. I put some electrical tape over the bars to keep them from getting scratched up and also create a higher friction surface to keep the clamp from spinning on the bars. It came with a nice adapter to fit either 1" or 7/8" bars. Next you need a double socket arm which has a socket joint on each end to grab onto the ball on the u-bolt and the ball on the phone grip. Then you attach the x-grip to the other end of the double socket arm and you are good to go. The 2 ball and socket joints give it really good articulation so it can be adjusted in any direction and the knob allows you to easily tighten it down snugly without tools. I was a little worried about my phone flying off the mount at high speeds but it proved to be very stable. However, for a little piece of mind, I created a small tether out of some string to attach the phone to the mount in the event that it came loose while under way. Fortunately, this was just me being overly cautious because I never saw it move at all during any of my rides. ... show more

  • Not aesthetically pleasing.
Style: Medium Arm
The overall color/ finish isn't good. Not solid black, more of a swirled gray, black color. Not going to return, it serves its purpose and I will probably just paint it. Expected better quality for the price I paid. I blame this more on Ram Mounts rather than the seller. However, note to seller, please quality check your products before shipping. Return the sub par ones to Ram Mounts and get better ones or lower your price on the "ugly" ones. Bet you'll get great reviews for products with problems like this if it was sold as a bargain bin item. ... show more
