Yea that was my next option lol. James at r&r offroad has one but I've used his the last 2 times and I feel bad borrowing it constantly. I guess I need one

 

I've had one for years and since I run a wire whip with an adjustable tip, that occasionally snaps off with spirited driving through the trees, I've had several occasions to use it.

 

We tried that and none of our truck stops had one lol

 

I have a swr meter that I loaned out bout 6 months ago and haven't gotten it back yet

 

You guys have any Radio Shacks still open? they carry them.

 

I've got gramps that I have not used or returned in a month

 

This one is almost exactly what I have. Could be ordered and shipped to your door. There are prolly better ones out there if you want to search.

You can also get one off Amazon. That is where I got one.

 

Not as exciting as ordering suspension parts, but still useful.
And occasionally it may get you a free beer...

 

I'll check around stores. Thanks gents. And lady.

 

Is it just me or are you proud of this statement?

 

I'm on the fence about buying something different than this midland handheld

 

Depends on whether you are gonna stay CB or jump to HAM. My Cobra handheld is all I will do. For a more powerful system I will go HAM once I take the class and get licensed.

 

Yeah i did the fix on a Silverado, Tahoe and escalade.

 

When I was lurking around 3 Gen forum, couple of folks had airbags installed in the rear. Am I just crazy thinking its waste of money?
I can see air bags in F250, Ram 2500 if they are towing a large camper but didn't make sense on a mid size pick up.

 

The stock leaf springs are stupid soft which make for a compliant ride but it sucks balls when towing something or even with 1,000 lbs of weight in the bed. Hell I'd get a lot of sag with just 600 lbs in the bed. The airbags let you add more resistance in the rear when you need it but let you still have a softer ride by deflating the bags to 3-5psi when not towing or carrying weight.

 

If you're towing and the bed loaded up to GVWR airbags are a good option. With Daystar cradles the unloaded articulation is the same.

 

We did check there. I recall them having one but I think they were the super expensive ones.

 

Amazon for everything. I'm an addict.

 

But they tax you now.
