Hi, I just got a new 2020 Ram 2500 Diesel Truck. I haul a pop up camper and it hits the shark fin antenna, which sits up over 3" over the roof (my old 2001 diesel didn't have that antenna).
Anyways, I don't want to raise the camper because I want to keep Center of Gravity of payload low as possible...I go to a lot of remote areas with hilly/bumpy roads, and you just travel better with a lower C of G.
So, I need to relocate sharkfin and plug the hole, or get a low profile antenna to replace the shark fin.
My truck has a shark fin and a puck.
I've read through a bunch of forum threads, and it sounds as if the shark fin is for system upgrades and maybe sirius XM....but maybe 2020 is different because others have said the sharkfin runs everything in newer vehicles. I Can't find any parts or detailed reroute ideas though...seems most people are adding a sharkfin and I want to move/delete mine lol.
I'm looking for options for either:
* reroute to new area (not on the roof) and plug the hole on the roof
* low profile similar to puck antenna (1/2" thick puck) where shark fin located? Not sure if this exists?
Anyone have info on how to do this for 2020 Ram 2500?
