    Seriously, we beat on my skid from the front and the back. It finally lined up. But it wasn't easy

    If you don't draw blood, you're doing it wrong!
    Will do man. The magnet mount antenna needs no tuning, but if I permanently mount it, I will build an antenna mount with either a Wilson or Firestik and hard-wire the CB. Might do that in the next couple weeks.

    same shit as everyone else
    Just put on a 4' fire stick... Kinda tall but I have plans :devil:


    [​IMG]

    It sure did! Mitch, it was a lot easier using a floor jack and a person on each side. We just went front to back and then played around with the tranny bolts for the rear. It was nice to have a little more clearance too then what we had with yours. More room to move around an elbow and what not. I could get a lot better leverage to get everything lined up!


    For my CB I mounted it here...

    [​IMG]

    It was too big to put it in the lower dash like Adam or even the center glove box or rear cup holders. I don't want to deal with soldering longer wires on the face plate so I just put it there. I really like the radio though! I have a built in SWR meter and I can even tune other peoples transmissions from my radio if they are near me.

    The skids weighed out to be 90LB's and removing the sway bar and OEM skids took 40lbs of that so my front end is still pretty even. All in all it was a good night! :D

    Oh and the diff drop still keeps like 7/16''s clearance!

    If you guys find any good deals on a decent CB, let me know! After seeing Jason's, I definitely want one.

    Holy hell I just wasted a ton of time fighting with video editing. Windows live movie maker is something I'd expect an iPad could handle. I then moved to Lightworks but that got schizophrenic in a hurry.
    I'm NOT loading up my ancient hacked copy of Premiere 4, and I'm not paying that ridiculous price for CS 5 or whatever version.

    I'm a goat that's halfway through eating itself.

    I took it off roading last weekend and it didn't even bounce. but it's hard to hear the speakers because it's right up against the plastic. I'm going to use the audio jack on the back and run it to my Aux input on the back of my HU.

    that is why you adjust the lights to point down a little bit. they still put out plenty of light that way to see where you are going.
