basically the coax connects to the cb radio which goes through your panels or however you run the wire. the coax connects to the firestik stud which connects to the spring which goes to the antenna. the mount to the truck goes inbetween the washers on the stud.
stud:

spring:

Took a trip to Rausch Creek Off road park.
it was fun but we ended up spending more time outside on the 95 degree day waiting for someone to fix an overheating wrangler then actually on the trail driving.
got a couple shots in the trails but non were good i was at the back of the line but i got a few flexing shots at the trailer in tower city
also ran a scan tool for my check engine light. i have 11 codes. 02 sensors. misfires in 3 cylinders. evap leak. something with the ecm oh jeez

im getting very annoyed. every time i fix something i find something else broken lol. got the pulley hammered back in place today, put the new belt on, and my alternator seizes. little bit of lube to break the rust and its temporarily good, but now i have a really bad tranny leak cause of when the belt snapped i think, so the whole underside is getting soaked and hits the exhaust pipe and makes steam/smoke. on top of that when i put the ac on, the belt hardly spins. jesus! and to top all of that off, the powdercoat shop was closed today so i took a trip there for nothing.

okay so frank and i put on a new idler pulley, and new alternator, and now it doesnt squeal at all anymore.
also i got my bumper back from the powedercoat shop! woo.
so im going for surgery on my shoulder tomorrow so i wont be able to complete my jeep for a while but still to come is the durango box swap, the bumper, and new radiator.
anyone have any tips for a trans cooler install. since my belt snapping ended up dragging my trans lines into the fan they have holes in them and leak so i figure if i have to replace them i might as well add a seperate cooler.

finally done with everything. didnt get many pics tho since i could only use one arm most was holding a flashlight at night.
so i still have 2 more lights to mount somewhere on there, and i have to wire them all up. but im really happy with this. thanks again to the guys at jcroffroad for working with me on a price that fit what i needed.
so guys im still determining if i should keep removing the plastidip on the front facia and leave it off or redo it. what do you guys think looks better?
