TheDirtyJeep401 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I have just been trying to get ideas of where people have placed there CBs. If some people could show what they have done, It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW86 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 i mounted the mic on that little ridge so to speak, right below the five squares. you could always just hook it around the mirror with a bungee cord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDirtyJeep401 Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Does your shifter hit the CB when you shift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GirsMJ86 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 When I got my first MJ it had a cb that was attached to the back of the floor console and the mic hung on a metal bracket that stuck through the carpet on the back wall of the cab in the middle. Hope that makes sense, don't have any pics or I would post them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AeroNautical Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I feel like I posted in this, but apparently not, haha. mnkyboy: That center console, where can I get one. If that folds up into a seat, it's brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that folds up into a seat, it's brilliant. The PO had it set up like that in mine, judging by the wholes in the dash mnkyboy: That center console, where can I get one. If that folds up into a seat, it's brilliant. Is there a write up for that? How are the seats? Are they taller than Xj buckets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogmorgo Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Can't say for certain since it was removed before I got my MJ, but it looks like it was sitting on the transmission hump between my buckets. There's still a clip for the mic on the back of the shifter console, and an antenna cable with very limited reach that comes up through a hole under the driver's seat, as well as an antenna mount on the back of the cab, at the other end of the cable.

Pete M Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 aftermarket overhead shelf and a not-quite-fullsize CB headunit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpdriver1 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 hey pete --- are those shelves still around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnkyboy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The seats are from a 97 Dodge Dakota and yes the console does fold into a seat. The seats are very comfortable and have adjustable lumbar support, they are pretty close in height to the stock buckets but maybe just a little taller. There isn't a write up because my truck came to me with some old GM seats attached to wood blocks screwed into the floor so I started with nothing and had to fabricate everything. I think it would be much easier if someone had some brackets to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyc Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Most CB radios are obtrusive. So I got an all-in-one Cobra, that doesn't take up much room. Don't know where I'm gonna put the mobile ham, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnkyboy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 That's what my brother went with in his wrangler. Its nice how small it is, you can also buy extra power boxes for it and use it in multiple rigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDirtyJeep401 Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 How much do those run?? The cobra all in one. I do like the shelf that Pete had, but can't find one anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zackcj7 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I have one of those Cobra all in ones. It has not held up well. The coating on the mic cord started to deteriate over time and the mic holder on the back is plastic and will snap off with a little force. But although the plastic parts are falling apart the CB still does it's job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
