    Dont be offended ok..
    WRONG antenna for that truck..Top loaded as mike said..
    CRAP coax...
    Wong coax set up....Your running a 75 ohm set up on 50 ohm coax...

    Your coax routeing will end up kinking that coax....Im guessing its routed in the door jamb correct......
    Run coax just below the top door hinge,down behind that plastic the signal light is on.....Inside the can via the rubber grommet just on top of steering column and into cab down by your feet....That plastic on the a pillar just pulls off but peel off can side of that runner that runs along side the a piller plastic..Route cable as desired and replace plastic then rubber..
