99 4 Runner Antennae
My retractable antennae isn't moving up and down fully. I lubbed the heck out of it and it is now a bit better, however when retracted it sticks up a couple of inches, and when extended, it seems like it should go up a couple of inches. I think the problem lies in the skinniest segment of the antenna. It still feels very springy.
Is this something wrong with the motor, or is my antenna still a little seized up?
Thanks for the help.

it's busted off inside the reel
yer antenna telescopic part, and internal zip line,
needs to be replaced with a new one. they are cheap
and straightforward to replace

ya the only thing that is a pain
is getting to the antenna motor under the wheel well flap, dropping it
out of it's condom, opening the reel, and letting the busted chunk fall out.
put it all back in place, drop in a new antenna turn on the radio it will suck
your new antenna in, put on the final antenna bolt. done.

It took me about 5 minutes on the truck, really, it was incredibly simple.
