Default au arial

can someone tell me if you can change the mast on a electric arial. the motor works fine but the mast is faulty.if it comes up to high out of the base it will not go down unless i push the bottom of the mast back down first.thanks.

ive got the same issue, ive only seen the complete replacement, not just a standalone mast. Would be great if they sell it without the motor.

Yes you can buy them after market or ford, you have to open the arial motor to remove the plastic that's broken and feed the new one in.

A full replacement only cost 10-20 bucks doesn't it?? would be easier to replace the whole thing. Don't quote me on that though
