So I recently bought a 102" ss whip from Ratshack... While screwing it
into the mount, it caught a bit of friction and 3/4 of the threaded end sheared off in the mount. Has this happened to anyone before? I dont know whether I'm going to get a new one from RS, or if i'll just get my money back and order one from some other company.. looking for recommendations... Ben |

Ben Were you twisting it really hard or did it break easily? If you broke it easily I would get another brand. If you torqued it hard I would get another and put some lube on the threads. I've never used a Radidio Shack 102, I get mine at the truckstop. |
