This upgraded base fits most off-road LED whip lights designed for side-by-sides and ATVs (not compatible with 6-ball, center-pin or antenna styles). Built from heavy-duty spring steel with a black powder coat and stainless hardware, it gives your whip the flexibility to bend with the spring rather than stress the light itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this mount keep my whip light from breaking off trails?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe spring base adds controlled flex beneath the whip light so the pole bends at the spring instead of at the light’s mounting point.

The KEMIMOTO Whip Lights Spring Mounting Base is for off-road enthusiasts who already own an 8-bead whip light and want a tougher, more flexible mounting solution. It's suited to UTV and ATV riders, side-by-side owners, and boat users who need improved whip durability in windy or obstacle-filled environments. Avoid purchasing if your whip uses a 6-ball, center-pin, or antenna-style mount—measure your base compatibility before ordering. Each base ships with the spring washer, flat washer, and nut necessary to secure the assembly, offering a simple, long-lasting upgrade for compatible whip systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does this fit whip lights with 6-ball bearings?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No — it only fits whip lights designed for an 8-ball bearing groove system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What hardware comes with each spring base?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Each base includes one spring washer, one flat washer, and one stainless nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"KEMIMOTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48083252248734,"sku":"B0BZLQ42B3","price":61.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/kemimoto-front-packaging-and-base.jpg?v=1785829817","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/kemimoto-spring-mounting-base-for-whip-lights-8-ball-bearing-utv-atv-mount-spring-steel-stainless-hardware","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
