I always find those types of aerials ultimately end up in two bits and I always try and get just the green aerial part you've showen in your pic without that long base part, they tend to stay attatched to the vehicle better when you get into fights :mrgreen:

edit*

I dunno what sort of truck you've got but you want to see if you can tuck the aerial away somewhere where the trees cant see it :mrgreen:

Those stupid wire ones are always breaking. Mine broke 3 times before I couldn't find it on the side of the road somewhere in Taranaki

So I bought a fibreglass replacement from a local radio specialist, cost $58 dollars or so. Best thing I ever did

Screws onto the load coil (the fat bit) in the same way and is the same height.
Cheers,
