I also installed some smoked corners/turn signals that I got off eBay. I need to wire up my HIDs but the courtesy lights on my XJ are causing problems so I gotta remove that resistor or whatever before I can run my HIDs.. Here are some more pics
curious, what headlights did u use for the HID's? any close up pictures possible?

Is there an advantage to having 2 springs on your CB antenna? It seems like it would just make it taller and it would swing around a lot more just smacking the body. I had one spring on my 4 ft antenna, and it just slapped the body all day long while on the trail. I ended up taking it off, but then it cought a tree and snapped lol

Not that I know of, my friend gave me this antenna and it already had the 2 springs on it so I just mounted it how I got it. However these springs are pretty stiff and it doesn't smack my body At allOriginally Posted by 91XJMudMan

A real cb'er will tell you no. And here is the reason, when you run co phase it makes your system directional. Where as a single antenna will look 360.Originally Posted by 91XJMudMan

Does it really hurt to have 2? I don't think so.. But that's what I'm told and my friends dad has been a cb/ham operator for a very long time. In fact he does that sort of thing for a living. (electronics/radios/lighting)
But I like how it looks to so I'm going co phase also. 2 four ft red/white/blue firestiks
Also to stop the antenna from hitting your jeep you can drill 2 holes in a tennis ball and slide it on. This way when it swings it hits the ball instead.
