the antenna on my max is kinda dry and needs to keep it moving. it wont go down all the way, so should i use wd-40 on it to get it moving again?

wd-40 will work fine, keep her lubed up

A dry lubricant would work better for this application. Graphite poweder comes ti mind. Why not jsut get a new unit? Only 27$, and 15 minutes to change.

use a silicon lube rather than wd 40

wd40 is black and will make ur antenna look ugly, especially after driving around for a while and it collects dust,. i used something called Rust Check its a spay can that worked perfectly all winter keeping the salt away

i used wd-40..works well....just try and keep it away from the paint...or make sure u wash or wipe it off if it does get on there

WD 40 works like a charm when my antenna went down 3/4 of the way and got stuck. It's a great cleaner too. I just turned on the radio, sprayed it down, let it soak for a minute or so, and then used a rag to wipe the excess, dirt, grit....antenna's been working fine ever since. That stuff does wonders.

I also used engine degreaser to remove all the old oil and crap that was on the aeiral and making it get stuck on the way up & down.
