Nerf Dart Stubby Antenna - Jeep Wrangler & Gladiator 2007-2024
Some Jeep modifications improve ground clearance. Others add traction, lighting, or protection. Then there's the BuiltRight 110032 Nerf Dart Stubby Antenna, an upgrade created largely because somebody apparently looked at an ordinary stubby antenna and decided it wasn't entertaining enough. The result is a billet aluminum antenna shaped like a foam dart that gives the 2007–2024 Jeep Wrangler JK, Wrangler JL, and Gladiator JT an unmistakable finishing touch.
The playful shape doesn't mean BuiltRight treated the construction like a novelty. The antenna is precision-machined from billet aluminum and protected with a durable black anodized finish. Its compact dimensions also eliminate the long factory whip antenna, cleaning up the Jeep's exterior profile and helping prevent the antenna from whipping against branches or becoming an annoyance around low-clearance obstacles.
Installation is about as uncomplicated as Jeep modifications get. Simply unthread the original antenna and screw the BuiltRight Nerf Dart Stubby Antenna into the factory mounting location until finger-tight. BuiltRight specifically advises against using Loctite or other thread-locking compounds during installation. A permanently secured antenna can potentially damage the factory antenna base if someone later attempts to forcibly remove it.
There is one tradeoff worth understanding before making the switch. Like other compact stubby antennas, the BuiltRight version is not designed to improve AM/FM reception. Shortening an antenna can reduce reception strength depending on terrain, distance from the broadcast source, and local signal conditions. BuiltRight recommends this antenna for Jeep owners who already get strong radio signals with the factory antenna or who primarily use Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, satellite radio, or other audio sources.
If maximum terrestrial radio reception matters most, the factory whip remains difficult to beat. But if you'd rather ditch that long antenna for something compact, American-made, and considerably less serious, the BuiltRight 110032 Nerf Dart Stubby Antenna delivers. It's a five-minute modification that gives your Wrangler or Gladiator a small detail people are almost certain to notice.
One-of-a-Kind Nerf Dart Styling: Give your Jeep a little personality with BuiltRight's unmistakable Nerf Dart-inspired design, replacing the long factory whip antenna with a compact upgrade that's guaranteed to look different from the usual stubby or bullet-style antenna.
Precision-Machined Billet Aluminum: Constructed from billet aluminum for a solid, premium feel, then finished in durable black anodizing to help resist corrosion and maintain its distinctive appearance through changing weather and everyday Jeep use.
Clean, Low-Profile Design: The short antenna eliminates the tall factory whip sticking above the body, creating a cleaner exterior profile while reducing the chance of the antenna catching on low branches, garage doors, or other overhead obstacles.
Simple Screw-On Installation: Remove the factory antenna and thread the BuiltRight replacement into the original antenna base for one of the easiest exterior upgrades you can make to your Wrangler or Gladiator. No drilling, wiring, or special tools are required.
Made in the USA: Proudly manufactured in the United States and backed by BuiltRight Industries' lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and material failures.
