I want to put a cb antenna on my s2k. What i have in mind is a bolt that goes into the rear tow hook and a 90degree bracket on that to attach a whip antenna from my rear bumper. I want something that is stiff enought to not slap the rear of my car. The cb will be for a road rally. Any suggestions on an antenna? I already have a cb setup from the truck so the radio/mic portion is covered. ---

I’ve used firesticks in the past, plenty stiff enough to not smack the car. ---

Firestick is your best bet. Do not get an 8ft whip with spring base like I have on my half truck. It will take someone’s eye out. ---

Not to sound repetitive but definitely go with a Firestick, they are very durable and they have an adjustment screw on top to tune the antenna. ---
