    Hey guys. I am interested in frenching a power antenna into my 61 cab. How do I go about doing this. Anyone know of a good site that shows you how to do such. OR is there a kind of KIT to get? Thanks.

    I used a steel post portion and welded it in the old fuel inlet hole in my cab, make sure you put a drain in it and dont make it too deep, the paint wont go in when you paint.

    frenching an antenna is where you recess it into the body. Imagine a hole in the cab about an inch wide and 1.5 inches deep. At the bottom is the power antenna. That's frenching and antenna.
