WTFaulkner build

Alrighty I got my CB/Coax cable/Antenna ordered.

I don't feel the need for a "Quick release" for the antenna but who knows it might be convenient down the road.

CB:

$65 Uniden PRO520XL Pro Series 40-Channel CB Radio. Compact Design. ANL Switch and PA/CB Switch. 7 Watts of Audio Output and Instant Emergency Channel 9. - Black

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004VXNI/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Antenna: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QB917Q/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Coax Cable:

$43 USA Made PL-259 Improved Double Shielded RG-58u for FireStik Antenna K-8A 18-Foot Single CB/Ham Coax Cable

.

I am unsure to how exactly I am going to mount the antenna, but I could not justify purchasing a $50 piece of metal from BAMF or Relentless Fab as a mount.
But I may not have many options?


Anyways im stoked and will post pic's once installed

 

Looking to upgrade my UCA's, I am not looking to go uni-ball since I live in SLC and all of the death salt they put down.

I'm looking into LR UCA's but want to see if anyone has any recommendations.

I was also told this should work for my Taco, does anyone have any first hand experience with these? or know if they are a good buy?- Any input would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

 

So I have been away from TW for quite sometime now just working and looking for a house and ETC...

I have a couple new goodies I have since put on the truck so I just wanted to update the ol' build thread....

We'll start here I got some Light Race UCA's from sierraexpiditions.com



After those I got a roof basket made by Yakima. I absolutely love it and it more than serves its purpose.

Still alive and still building the truck-
