    Hey folks, my antenna broke off and so I need to replace it. Has anyone replaced theirs? If so any suggestions or information would be helpful. Thanks, Woodcutter.

    Where did it break? Down inside the fender or above it?
    Mine snapped off so I extracted the threaded part and got a shorter rubber one for like $10

    Antenna broke above the fender, the motor that runs the antenna up/down operated for a while afterward but has now stopped

    I got a 6" replacement rubber antenna and I love it because it doesn't get caught on sticks and trees when offroading.
