Bloody CB aerial

[makeitfit]

Went out on a team wales route finder today and er well the truck needs some attention :doh

Any hoo, I bring you all good advice
PUT A RUBBER TIT on the end of your CB aerial or this might happen to you too :augie

Hey ho back to the scrappy again tomorrow then :lol

 

[Fez_uk]

Where was my invitation??

that must of been some serious whip. did it flick right around!?

also where did you go to get it that muddy on such a sunny weekend?

 

[makeitfit]

Sorry mate it was a spur of the moment job as there was no bloody wind
Went to the tuff bit of Brechfa , it was awesome :sly
Mega hard and winching lots :naughty
I'm uploading vids now
If it wasn't the whip then I reckon I've been shot by some bobble hat type in a sort of "Deliverance " stylee

 

[Fez_uk]

no worries, I will wait till I get a winch then for that part.

could it be that your ride hit mach1 with lpg injection causing a sonic boom which then broke the windows?

Any news on the patrol?

 

[makeitfit]

Allegedly the patrol was mot'd on Fri I'll find out tomorrow.
You'll need bigger wheels too for where we went today. I was on the deck with 33s, the defender with us on 35s was winching too and the only one clear (with some effort) was Stuart's thunderbird II on 35s and diff locks etc

mine did that going through a low barrier in a car park. but still to this day cant see how. i bent the aerial later to see if it was plausible it could be the aerial and the pressure it takes to get it to hit the window is too much i thought , but its the only possible cause. as im sure i had not been shot

 

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

ah those banjos

sorry are you saying tehe aerial was on the car when it hit the screen.
hell i know it can wobble arrounf inside the car when not in use so have
it stashed unde back seat sepaerate to the mag mount.

 

[makeitfit]

It was on the roof and in use in the woods yesterday
We can only guess that it got a proper twatting from a branch or two and somehow clipped the rear screen:doh
Extreme has had it happen and one of the guys out yesterday suggested it while I was convinced it was the banjos :lol

 

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

where is the aeriel fixed then? on the rear of ther rails.

glad i have my mini stinger in middle of trolls roof on a mag
out of harms way. seen some have mags on bonnet, reckon
at hat rate could do front screen.

 

[makeitfit]

I've got mag mount on the roof just behind the sun roof in the middle

 

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

oh so long twig, or so-long twig now, and a mini nstinger?

 

[makeitfit]

Yeeees, tell me more of this mini stinger of which you speak? :sly

 

[Fez_uk]

its a shorter version of the ones you have pete. I am suprised the magmount held, I've hit low trees and it's come off.

 

[briggie]

google mini stinger , or tornado mini stinger ( same thing ) its around half the size of the normal stinger .... ideal for green laning

I am suprised the magmount held, I've hit low trees and it's come off.

He's probably glued it on :lol:lol:lol

 

[briggie]

i have a triple mag mount , no bluddie way is that coming off :lol .... takes two to lift it off and on :lol

 

[Adz]

Yeeees, tell me more of this mini stinger of which you speak? :sly

You need to get on the 4WD Club site more as Fez can tell you i started this same thread on there :lol

Although some C**T snaped mine off
:banghead

So I'm now using a mini stinger & mag mount

The mag mount didn't come off, just the end of the aerial "whipped" the screen:doh
