    3" Icon lift up front, with Dakar springs and Bilsteins out back. All Pro APex front bumper, Demello Offroad rear bumper, Hella Hella, Smitty Built sliders, Toyo AT2 285/70 17 on some Stealth Custom Series wheels, Wet Okole Covers, Leer Cap,
    Snapped off two of these using my truck in the woods. Went to a short rubber unit that seems to hold up well. I think I found it on the Amazon where I'm a Prime member ;-)

    I replace the antenna on all my trucks with shorter ones from antennax.com
    They are good, quality antennas.

    I took my taco through a car wash with the stock antenna on it and the car wash broke it and took it off. now the replacement ones aren't fitting... Is it possible that the antenna slot was bent when the car wash torn the antenna out? Thanks

    I replaced the stock antenna with one of these as soon as I got my new taco :) Looks good and doesn't bounce off the heating pipes in my underground parking.

    I can't let the wife know
    On the ad it states it is an ornament. Does that mean it is not meant to receive signal?
