RE: Mounting cell antenna on a spring?

Thanks for the input. I'd like to be able to lower it when traveling, but I'm an old geezer and goosey about climbing even part way up the ladder to do it. Also, per this post, I don't always remember to lower it. :)

Mounting cell antenna on a spring?

I mounted a Weboost cell booster antenna on my truck camper. Didn't see any spring in the kit, so I used a rotating mount to lower it when traveling (see below for photo). Forgot to lower it when leaving a boondocking spot and the antenna hit a tree and broke off the mount.
I later found the spring. My question is if I use the spring to mount the antenna in an "always vertical" position, will the spring (probably) stop any antenna damage due to hitting trees, etc?

Many thanks for the votes, folks. I'll let you know the results next week.
Buzzcut1: I've usually stayed on the West side, but BLM put a stop to that. Got there on a Thur and found a great site on the E side.
