Title: Anybody have camera mounts in your rig?
Post by: bandit86 on December 31, 2003, 07:39:37 AM
I'd like to stick something in my rig so I can take movies of the trails. It'd be nice to have it beside the mirror in the middle

I see alot of cute chicks driving around in Sidekicks and Trackers... I even saw this ULTRA cute chick driving a sleek black Samurai.  :o

But anyways, back on topic, I once had my video camera mounted dead centre on the dash board while my friends and I were out on a joy ride through the dark city streets after a going to a gig...LOL

What I used is a rollcage mounted camera mount. I got it from a local race shop (100 bucks) and mounted on the passeger grabbar. Works good but the camera lens needs to set high on the camera. It vibrates a little but if you got a steady cam option it works good for trial riding. If your interested I can EM you a picture as soon as I take a picture. (day or two)

I got the picture of the camera mount. Now all I got to do is find a scanner.

I have a welder, I can probably make something if I see the pics.  I would like to make it anti-vibration though.. any ideas?  I was thinking rubber isolation on the camera mount screws but maybe have to go for springs

Check out www.ram-mount.com I'm sure they will have somethink suitable, the prices are all over the place but if you still to the standard 1" size they are usually the cheapest

 Thank you SOMER for posting my picture.
Please excuse the dust, I had to fire the maid.
That mount is from  I/O Port Racing supply.
Its 3-way adjustable so you can mount it sidewas on a roll-cage or flat on a cross bar. I just mounted on my grab-bar. It fits 1 1/4 to 2" tubing. the yellow caps are there so my GF don't knock her knees.

I am fairly new to this site.  I have an 87 sammy.  6" lift locked, and 31's

I know of a guy I wheel with that has a 46 willys.  He has a digital camcorder.  He has set up a remote camera lense that he put on a clip that he can clip anywhere on the vehicle.  He did some video from different areas including a diff cam shot from underneath the heep.  It looks pretty cool, and the remote lense seems pretty durable.  I am not an expert on these things, but I don't think it was that hard to set up.  Not sure of the cost though.

Put the camera where it won't split your head open. (or your passenger's)

    Thats my next move is to find one of those little remote cameras (looks like a lil flashlight). Don't have a clue on where to look for one and how much they cost.

Nice camera mount.  But I have an air bag and not a "OH Sh**" handle.

Also, I like the oil funnel holder you have.  ;D  ;)
Title: Re: Anybody have camera mounts in your rig?
Post by: HotRod on January 09, 2004, 11:57:29 AM
 Keeps the oil from dripping.  I may look into those Lil cams. Thanks for the link.
 Do you think they just hook-up to a standard cam?
Title: Re: Anybody have camera mounts in your rig?
Post by: lil_Truck on January 09, 2004, 12:26:02 PM
The camera in the picture is the same one I have.  The Canon ZR 40.  It's just a digital camera.
Title: Re: Anybody have camera mounts in your rig?
Post by: HotRod on January 09, 2004, 02:07:08 PM
  So what your saying is thats all there is to it?  Camera, recording box(whatever)and batteries. Guess I will look into it closer. But after I get funds for that rockcrawler gear.
