Stock antenna jammed?

[DrunkenTiger]

I think I twisted the stock antenna too hard and now its not coming off. I twisted it clockwise and that's how you're supposed to get it off right? I dont know if it's jammed or not because it does twist and it looks like its going up but I went to a point where it would twist but wouldn't come off. Any suggestion to how to get the antenna off so I can add a s2000 one? Please help

well what should i do now? is it jammed? Is there a way to get it out?

I had to use a pair of plyers and a towel just to get the sucker off since I myself screwed it in way too tight (I did that because it was loose when I got it home after buying it).

do you guys think using wd-40 will loosen the antenna a bit?

oh my GOSHHHHHHHHHHH! Yea spry WD-40 all over it, and gear oil and some bushing grease. the thing will come off. just kiddin just put a cresent wrench around it ( with a towel , if you dont want it to get scratched) and turn it counterclock wise.

rip that bich out of there, use an open end wrench, or some vice grips
