Anyone got plans or pictures of adding a Director to an existing 2 element Mobile Beam?

I was wondering if its worth all the trouble to add a director in front of my hot antenna running my 2 element beam on my truck?

As of now, Im getting a 2 db gainwith both my 10K's @72" spacing which 55mentioned for sticks only.

I know 55 antenna magic mentioned that a 72" Spacing on a reflector mobile beam cannot be expanded into a 3 or 4 element mobile beam unit but I think with some work and tuning, it's possible to expand it into a 3 or 4 element mobile beam.....

I dont know but I need some help installing a Director element mount on my 2 element mobile beam.

Aloha 1-5!!
