That's just what I did with my MH. Just be careful not to hit one of your supporting square frames. You do want that if you are using a tuner like mine that wants to be grounded.
Here are some pix of what I did. The tuner is mounted in a void out of site that was unused between the front and side cabinets. I also put a couple of eyelets on the side of the MH whip and a non conductive line to it so I can pull it down for travel without having to get out a ladder as the base it at nearly 10'.
This system seems to work well 10-40 meters. I have it will tune 6 but I have not used it there.
Adding additional wire to it is another option while parked that I have done with the same setup in the past.
