Ron or anyone who's done this mod,

So is the 4.75" measurement the length of the bar?

My Tac whip antenna and skid plate are getting deliverd this week for my 00 sports ed and I would really appreciate it if someone got me (and also help whoever is going to do this mod in the future) the measurement between the rear hole (that mounts to the body/original bracket) and the front hole (where the nut is welded on Ron's) taken from the center of each hole (or on-center measurements).

I think that would be the more accurate measurement rather than the length of the bar since I don't know how far from the edges the mounting holes are.

I did a lot of searching but haven't found the answer.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the late post but here are some pics showing hole locations.

Thanks for the reply Ron! No worries!
Hey I did see that pic from one of the threads. If its not too much to ask, on your extension plate, could you please measure the distance between the holes that mount to the skid plate and to the original bracket(or on-center measurements). I'm sure this will help the others who are planning to fabricate their own brackets too!

Thanks again!

Ron,
I sent you a PM, I was just bugging you (sorry!) about the measurements of the bracket extension.

Thx!
