Haha, I got about that close to the top of a parking garage once, and I don't even have a lift. Although with my lights and the lightbar, it's about 10 in. taller than the roof but still. Lookin' good though.

looks good what wire power wire did u have the cb on

What did you use to be able to tip over the CB antenna like that? I'm looking to do almost the exact same thing on mine.

Its called an "easy-over". I got 2 off amazon a while ago. Cons are: shouldn't be used to transmit when folded down, and the pin in the center may fall out so zip ties should be used to "leash" the antenna whip just in case.

I was considering using something similar (I'll go look on Amazon) but with a clip towards the top of the antenna where it meets the roof rack. Have you had any other issues with the antenna flopping around while it's down?

In the upright position it will not affect your SWR, HOWEVER FOLDED OVER IT WILL CREATE A HUGE SWR!!! Don't damage your radio!
I had it running on a regulated splitter. I got a coil/capacitor RF choke diagram from a Radio Engineer so I just need to build it. Then I will power the CB through the choke but from my rear battery that i still need to install!
