I havent taken good pics yet, although i do have some install pics on the lift. they are posted in the cucv forum. I have a shackle flip on the way to get rid of the lift block in the rear. Also have a banks kit that is getting ready to go one. will be intercooling it as well, although they say that for the low boost levels it not needed, I want to drop the egt's as much as possible. I am doing a rear disc brake conversion as soon as the brackets arrive. and the next thing on the list is to go to crossover steering.

I would love to see some better pics of the antenna setup that you have on your m1009.

not much to see, but when i get a chance i'll take a closeup picture.

basically it's a 18"x18" 1/4" plate with 1/4" angle iron risers/crossbar for mounting the antennas on. It also has 1 riser per side and 2 in the center that go up high enough to function as brush deflectors.

Basically the whole assembly cost me about 40-50$ to build out of the local steel rem yard. Considering my ham antenna cost $60+ the last time it got ripped off when I was wheeling (branch took it off the top of the truck and also damaged the roof/cabling when it did it) it's a small bit of satisfaction. it's bolted straight down through the pseudo-rollbar we have on these rigs. Perfect ground plane, branches get deflected, and it holds all 3 of my antennae. Ham, CB, Scanner.
