GME’s Heavy Duty Antenna Spring in black takes the hit so your AE4704B, AE4705B or AE4706B antenna does not. The stainless steel body lets the antenna flex when you clip branches or hit corrugations at highway speeds around 100 km/h. The spring sits between your bullbar mount and whip, helping the setup handle long touring days without constant retightening or bent bases. The stainless steel construction with a black finish matches standard GME black antennas and brackets, so the whole setup looks tidy on the bar. The metal body copes with hot bitumen days above 40°C and cold morning starts without softening or cracking like plastic spacers. The spring comes as a single piece, ready to bolt into an existing AE4700-series mount using the supplied antenna hardware, which makes it a smart buy for regular off-road and towing work.

Q: Does this antenna spring include an antenna as well?

No, this antenna spring is supplied as the spring only. The kit does not include an AE4704B, AE4705B or AE4706B whip. You reuse your existing antenna and mounting hardware. This spring simply replaces or upgrades the existing spring section in your setup. Check that your current antenna is one of the compatible models before ordering.

Q: Will this spring fit non-GME UHF antennas?

It is specifically listed to suit GME AE4704B, AE4705B and AE4706B antennas. Thread sizes and mounting styles can differ between brands, which affects compatibility. Using it with other antennas may require additional hardware or may not be possible. For a reliable setup, match this spring with the stated GME AE4700-series models. If you run another brand, check the thread details carefully.

Q: Is the spring suitable for bullbar mounting on 4WDs?

Yes, this heavy duty spring is intended for vehicle antenna mounts including bullbars. The stainless steel build is suited to front-mounted antennas that see vibration and occasional branch strikes. When fitted to a solid bracket, the spring allows the whip to flex instead of transferring all load to the base. This helps protect the antenna during normal touring and commuting use.

Q: Does the black finish affect antenna performance?

No, the black finish is cosmetic and does not change UHF performance. The spring sits below the active antenna element and mainly handles mechanical loads. The finish is there to match GME black antennas and mounts and to provide surface protection. Radio performance is still determined by the AE4700-series antenna itself. Keeping connections tight and corrosion free will have a greater effect on signal quality.
