    Default Ram Mount For Butler Drink Holder

    I Got my Butler at Spyderfest and Mr Butler had said the long bolt on the back was put there to mount a Ram Ball you can put your phone or whatever on. I finally found the correct ball mount and thought I'd share.

    I also ordered the double sided socket to mount an X grip for my Samsung Galaxy note 4

    and this is the Xgrip I got for a large phone.

    I got 2 of the 3 pieces I needed. One of them is the ball that mounts on the butler. It is a perfect fit.

    Learn something new everyday, what a great place!! Actually, you usually learn a lot of new things on SL everyday.

    This is why Butler included that extra nut under the acorn nut. The purpose of that nut is to act as a lock nut for the ball mount. The acorn nut is just a throw away once you get the ball. I dont know why he does not offer the ball with the package. He just said I could find it on Amazon.

    Maybe, or turn the phone correctly first.
