    Hi everyone,

    It seems that my truck is missing the Antenna pretty sure someone ripped it off when they keyed the side of my truck.

    That being said what recommendations do you have for an antenna? Also is there a link to an install?

    Thanks

    Is your whole antenna assembly missing, or just your antenna?

    I picked up a short 3"antenna off of ebay so the car wash wouldnt play hell with it so bad. It was all pretty self explanatory once you tear into it.

    Just the antenna I found a guide for install. So I should need just an antenna?

    The antenna just screws on and off. It's really simple. If that's all you need, I can ship you mine for the cost of shipping.

    Antenna x sells a 19" one that won't slap your garage door when pulling in. Same reception as the stock one. Very rigid.

    +1 for AntennaX. I bought a 13" one there and the reception is almost identical to the stock antenna. They also make a flexible off-road shorty antenna.

    You should check and make sure it was broken off. You might still have the bottom of the Antenna screwed in.
