I got really lucky and was able to get one from a dismantler for $300 in ThunderCloud silver. I was repainting the front end anyway so the hood was matched to the body color.

Where are you mounting the antenna? That medium spring will allow the antenna to hit the vehicle if you mount it too low, like on the tailgate mounts that most 3rd gens run. A heavy spring might be better suited for you if so.

I'm mounting it on the tail light mount that @MStudt sells, SRQ also sells one:see link below. Per mstudt with the medium spring it doesn't hit.

These are the ones that I sell.

If you plan on running a 4' whip you will need a heavy duty spring. If you're running a whip 4' or longer on a medium spring you will have some body contact at highway speeds. Running a heavy duty spring is really the best option.

The longer antennas couple with the medium spring might whip into the body, which is why you’ll see some vehicle use a tennis ball to keep it from contacting the body. I would recommend a heavy spring but there has to be other members that opted for the medium spring that could chime in and confirm. Just food for thought.

Posts 330 to 332 is from someone using the same style mount that was mentioned above. Black798's 98 limited build thread

I will let you know about the spring, if it doesn't work out its only another $16.

Spent the previous weekend installing the cb radio.
-Cobra 19 DX IV
-firestik premium 18’ coax
-firestik 4’ antenna
-custom made mount(I wouldn’t build another one, just buy @MStudt antenna mount, it’s cleaner and you don’t have to do all the measuring and cutting/bending.

@Dezert4Runner check it out!

Went wheeling yesterday and caught the exhaust on a log and it bent. I was already planning to chop it down so now it was a must.
