What are better mounts for graphs ram or balzout? Have older ram mounts with rubber ball and not a fan. But have new ones improved?

Use some friction tape on Ram-mounts.

Get a bike inner tube and cut a piece 3-4 inches and work it on to the ball mounts, it will hold like a champ!

Sounds like a good idea. I'm going to try it.. I have a XHD mount that is rock solid. I love it. That thing will last 50 years.

Well in this case you do get what you pay for! welcome

Guys will spend 50, 75, 100K on a boat, 2-3K on each graph, and call a $175.00 dollar mount expensive. hammer

I have the rubber ball on two ram mounts and have no issues at all, just make sure they are tight. No issues. The balzout is a good mount also.
