ok so the cigarette lighter has a green and black wire comeing out of it...am i to assume that the green is ground and the black is power?

heres the mount up ill post pics of how i did the connection, i made it so i can take the cb out and out a new one in withhout havint to rewire in the future.

its a magnet mount but this antenna is just temp till i get my wilson 1000, I'll have to post pics of where i put the radio, i feel like its a unique spot and very easy to get at if i want to put different radio in later. ...so anyway...out the back hatch you say?...sounds good to me!! note: i dont want to put tape on mine but would it mess up my tuneing if i was to take it off and put in inside whenever i was parked somewhere like a mall? and also are you still using the k 40, i found it for like $30 and im wondering if 1) thats an accurate price 2) should i just get that instead of the $70 wilson?

ok so i got he radio hooked into power.... how do you guys suggest that i route the antenna wire? I found a ton of stuff on this subjet for j**ps but nothing for pathfinders.... -study-

errrr....that is in the commercial as well, he was playing along

well alright now whitch fuse holder should i get 20 amp?

i found 10awg, 12awg and 18 awg....which one? and what fuse should i use, 10 20 or 30 amp?

k so i should just cut the fuse outa the wire and splice then put a fuse clser to the battery?...makes sense, ok i think i got it.

the wire coming out of the radio already has a fuse on the red wire...should i still get a fused wire? or should i just get long enough wire to reach the battery and the grounding spot? negative ground sytem correct?

so i have to lengthen the wire somehow, should i just use a wire nut to take it to the battery terminal and to the chassis? the diode thing youre talking about seems like a very good idea where can i pick one up?

i agree with you whole-heartedly... where should i hook the power up to, I know this may seem really dumb but that part is confusing the hell outa me right now.

thats alot of money....they have less expensive ones....will it make a huge difference or would i even notice

oh wow they have that same antenna in a magnetic mount version..sweet

specifically im just confused on where to connect the power wires to...the manual has all this crap about negative/positive ground.... thats what im confused about

im not either, sorry i came off as upset, the only reason i posted in the garage is because i didnt find anything that helped me with what i specifically needed, and it just sucks to have a post closed in a string where people are supposed to ask for help.

88pathoffroad I dont care if you are an admin stop being a jerk, you basically called me an idiot in the garage post, what the hell are these forums for if not for help with stuff.

huh?

uh noq i need to install it anybody know how?

i just went down to radio shack and got the Uniden Pro 510 xl...impulse buy you know how it is

sure it may be cheaper, but is the cost less...when I say cost i mean time and effort and possibly injury (theres always a chance)

first you should ask yourself, would it be cheaper just to sell the 2wd and buy a 4wd.

why are you selling it navy?

I want to get a cb radio but i cant justify buying one.....thats your job!!

i have those same tires with the blackwalls out on AR wheels

it would be cooler if it still had the machine gun....
