Good stuff, they are agile for the size, they seem ungainly but if its a road even a very small tight road you should fit, just seer clear of susuki trails, and the trees. My sister has rocked out a stock one for five or six years only ever needed axle seals besides regular maintenance and some minor astetic shit like the drivers window coming out the hangars. And the rear wiper motor bracket breaking.
shes had it to the top of prevost and out to the swimming holes but shes got a big family and dailys it to rhe mall so lift isnt in the budget for them.

Shane the company is called RF parts company,

Www.rfparts.com

I ordered Rfu538 male to male PL259
RFu male to female right angle adaptor
And 83 UHF female to female 2" amphenol

This allowed me to keep the coaxial conector inside the tub and turn the 3/8" stud mount I previously got into a useable mount.

Built a nicer cb antenna mount today, some steel bent and three connectors to go thru the tub and turn 90*s up. this has bassically fixed my untunable setup. (I also removed the quick disconnect from the antenna) Initially all my ignition noise was gone, and my swr was 1.5 without any tuning to the antenna. iI havent tested it out yet to see the level of ignition noise coming out of it since welding, painting it and putting it back in but my swr is back up to 2 so probably need to ground it out a little better.

Lesson is dont try to mount the antenna to a separate part of the tub like the hatch. it just creates complications. Was also listening to half a convorsation from california this morning. Lol love long wave.
