NW WA Meet / BS Thread

It's all good they need to slow the fuck down. Most of those guys don't realize that we don't own those roads or the surrounding area outside of the watershed.

 

You can put me on the list of guys that have had the pleasure of meeting them. They wen't on my side, but they were moving at a high rate of fuel consumption.

 

My mantra... Fuel is free for a company driver.

 

Hey looking to get firestik2 antenna this weekend anyone have thoughts on best place to mount it.

 

I'm a big fan of the hood hinge mount combined with a quick disconnect

 

I was too until Moab when 4' firestik would slap the passenger side windshield...

 

(I just got the drivers side tailgate mount yesterday)

or

CBI (If you get both sides, I am looking for the passenger side and gladly split the cost with ya, install is maybe 30 minutes)

 

I thought about front hood also but I was thinking about it hitting my windshield. So I hope this is not a stupid question but do you get 2 antennas One for each side any case I would split the difference with you

 

Sorry I’m not real hip on this stuff still learning

 

I've never had it hit my windshield...

The two antennae thing is used by semi trucks sometimes, makes the radio directional.

 

@Juforrest ditch light mount but you might be SOL with the 1st Gen

 

that happened to me and I just got a stiffer spring and no issues now

 

If you are planning on hard mounting a FirestikII without a spring, it will not hit the windshield.

My antenna is 4' with a spring and driving on Fins N Things, there were some rocks in the way...

The CBI hood mounts can be used for CB antenna or ditch light mounts.
I headed the ditch light mount and moving the antenna to the rear of the bed.

 

Wasn't stiff enough?

 

I just welded a tab to the bull bar of my bumper for a mount.

I got some new bigger ditch lights that block both holes in the mount. And yes sol for 1st gen. Haven't had a guinea pig yet.

 

I fixed all my stiffness issues, yes.

They make a pill for that.

 

Spring stiffener? Kinda like an aal, but blue?

 

You can get the generic, "mycoxaflopin" or there's a new one that hit the market, "mydixadril". Guaranteed to not disappoint.

 

I have a BAMF passenger side tailgate mount, powder coated black and for free if someone wants/needs it.
