Great replacement bat wing

I ordered a replacement king jack for our camper van as the bat wing flapped a bit on the road and showed signs of wear on the rubber roof. In addition, we received numerous pixel channels. King Jack is quick and easy to install. Our reception went from 66 Batwing channels, 20 of which are too pixelated to view, to 75 zero pixelated channels with King Jack. Note; The bat wing had three rubber feet at the bottom. With the King installed, the aluminum antenna mounts now rested directly on the roof. I solved this problem by removing the two rubber bat feet by drilling two zeros. 332" holes in the bottom of the lower mounting arm near the top and inserting two rubber feet as spacers between the aluminum arm and the rubber roof. I also discovered that the mounting bolts used on the King were iron and could end up staining the white roof with rust. After making sure it worked, I replaced nine of them with #4 3/8" and #8 1/2" stainless steel. Stainless steel for the four screws that attach the bracket to the king. i used my existing batwing power supply to power the king, makes the swap even easier, since the antenna needs to be up for proper operation, I continue to use my clothespin method to remind myself to lower it, before I set up camp. I have a labeled clothespin on the antenna handle and bring it to the shifter when I lift the antenna.
