Any ideas on simple ways to mount a CB antenna and all?

 

Well how much are you looking to spend? I think there is someone on the forums who sells simple mounts, or for a really simple mount you could just use a magnetic mount.

 

There's tons of ways. Guy on here sells mounts that bolt above the rear tail lights and the antenna screws bolts on. You can do the ball mount, (not as easy and you have to drill holes) or as he^^ said even the magnetic type

 

There is someone that has a mount bundle for $60. Check the vendor forums or if I can find it back I'll post it. Or OP you can check out QUADRATEC they have stuff too

 

I gotcha covered

Thanks

 

Np the thread was actually updated recently and was in my list, I also want one of these mounts but I think I could homebrew one for cheaper because I have the school auto shop at my disposal

 

ok so im on a budget and i have a set of 34s for my xj. my xj is stock at the moment. is there anyway to run the 34s just by cutting out the fenders and un-needed parts

 

I mounted mine on the front bumper on the passenger side with 2in bolts.

 

The 34's will Be too wide, but if u can get a wheel spacer or new rim you can trim and make it fit. There was a guy on here who was running 37's on stick suspension.

 

Wouldn't even think about it. On a flat surface, get your tires straight as you can. Then mark all of your steering links relative to the pitman arm with chalk or such. Then pull your gearbox and put in a new one. Tighten it all up, check the fluid and correct if needed. If it is a power unit be sure to follow the bleeding instructions in your book. Once bled and fluids correct, drive it for about five miles, recheck fluids and check for leaks. once thats done, go get a good front end alignment done. you should be good to go.

 

Don't think your problem is in all the parts you replaced. I had the exact problem you describe here with a couple of other small hiccups added. I need to ask you to check a couple of things before I start sending you chasing rabbits. With the motor running, emergency brake on and in neutral, does the following things cause the motor to die: 1-stepping on the brakes, 2-putting it into or just beginning to go into reverse, 3-using the right or left turn signal. Let me know what happens.

 

Anyone have thoughts on this?

 

Check the area around the inlet and outlet of the radiator. On mine it would leak more when hot. I had a small crack in the plastic tank, upper right at the inlet.

 

After my last trail trip I decided I need a CB to stay in touch with everyone in the group.

What brand and model does everyone recommend?
