PORTLAND OR. AREA- Trail runners wanted!!!
Just a side note here, If you are running trails don't forget upgrading communications too. A CB is really something that should be a "basic item" to have even before a lift imho. It can also help in keeping the group informed of problems in the back of the group or an oncoming traffic notification from the front of the group to the rear. Plus many other uses as well.
Unfortunately, I have to work Monday as well.
But I will get garage and JK tweaking time this weekend.

Wish I was in town tomorrow so I could meet you guys. I installed my Cobra 75 and I am trying to fine tune it with my SWR meter. Hope you keep taking pictures. Hate being a lurker but the photos have been great

x2, That's why I mounted my antenna up front (drivers side) as well. I had D&R help me install my Uniden 510 over head (above the rear view mirror).
I bought the package from "David" at Northridge. Mounted 3' firestick antenna on spare tire bracket and ran coax to glove box where I used velcro to attach it. I ran the power wire straight to the battery and grounded unit to the ground point in the passenger foot well. I ran a ground from the antenna mount to the Woofer speaker unit mounting bolt. What I love about this forum is the information available. My install is not unique an here is one quite simular. I like the fact that I can easily remove the antenna and it is semi protected. Maybe not the best for transmission but in the woods with a group it should work.
