Finally installed my CB for HIH. I ran a k35 magnetic antenna on the roof. I'll probably get a better antenna and mount eventually. I'm a few miles from the highway and could still hear some light chatter so I think this will hold me over.
What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (90 Viewers)

Please tell be HIH isn't all CB and there is mostly ham support?
They say it's all CB on the trails.
What did you use for the mic mount on your console? I got the standard metal one and the same console as yours. Hesitant to run a couple of sheet metal screws into it just for a trip. City boy like me don't use a CB too often.
Had the same condition with my swaybar on the DS. The mounting hole is elongated, which allows the link to get offset, which prob. increases wear of the bushings and the stem. I dont think it poses any a safety issues, but it does affect the durability of the links. Before thinking it through, I ordered a new swaybar and planned to change it out when I serviced the LCA's ( you gotta remove the TB's to get the swaybar out). After I bought the new swaybar, the thought later occurred to me that I could probably weld/fill the hole in while its mounted to the truck, drill a new hole and be good to go. Hopefully that hint saves you some effort & money.
I used the 3M foam double sided tape on the standard metal hook. Its held so far, but I felt the same about screwing holes. I'll probably screw it to a flat piece of plastic then double side tape that to the console so it has more contact surface for the tape.
Ordered a birthday present from Slee...
So what did you get??
New rear bumper. Should ship later this week!

I replaced my original radiator, had a small leak, and while I was in there replaced my plastic heater tees. One of them fell apart while removing but got to the loose pieces.
Its been a very busy past two weeks. Got my CB installed and tuned (I have an SWR meter I can bring to HIH if anyone needs one) and swung by Bump It Offroad and picked up my sliders.
I'm ready for HIH!
