This is where I mounted the antenna and the Cobra for now.
Thinking about relocating the radio soon.
Hope this helps.

I thought it would suck here, but honestly I don't notice it at all. Your leg doesn't bend in a way you can even touch it and still be using the gas pedal. No holes drilled, used an existing screw through the provided mounting bracket. This was a temp mount for a trip that I was going to take out and replace with a 75 like everyone else. Sadly, I like this enough I might have to do some work on the power wires.

If for some reason you submerge the JK, water will get in, and destroy the CB.

I have a magnetic antenna lying around, I'm wondering where I should put it on the truck.

At different times Iv had a mag mount cb and ham antenna on the Jeep.
I had them on the right side by the windsheild and they seemed to work good there.
