There were none, Real Jeeps didn't come with radios. And Ford and

We had this discussion a while back. It would seem they put two
different ones on, maybe depending on the year or the supplier that
year?

One is the upside down triangle, the other is that ball and coil one.

The universal-fit adjustable ball antenna is an aftermarket thing, my
local AutoZone has them hanging on a rack. The drawback to them is that
they sometimes loosen up and fall over.

4wd.com has the OEM style that you called an inverted triangle in chrome
telescopic (#4487502), chrome (448751) or black (4487512), your choice
$29.99.
