If you put a paintball gun on the front the antenna will help you aim. This will be very helpful when passing FJ drivers in the trail

I am going to leave it up front for a few days to see how I like it or if it does drive me nuts! It is either there or remount to one side on the rear. I did have mount in the center of rear tail gate, and when I ride with rear window open, I wound bent it to the side and up against the rear window, where it has worn the rubber/plastic coating off the ant.

one advantage to a front mounted setup is that it serves as a guide to where the front of your bumper is.

I think it's going to drive you bonkers! It looks awesome though, like an Aussie rig from down under.
