    How to: 2nd Gen Gauge Cluster Removal and LED Conversion V2

    Sorry for cutting in here but to answer the question. The pics above show the illumination but out of the truck, I have not installed it yet but hope to soon. As you can see from the pic the lighting is even except for the area where there are light transfusers inside of the Housing, at both...

    How to: 2nd Gen Gauge Cluster Removal and LED Conversion V2

    As Bill Kemp has stated these are already lighted but you might be able to get te color you wanted. If not there are a lot of Suppliers on the Web that have just the overlay. This is the one I used: He does Custom Work as well as his standard stuff and he is a good guy to work with. I now have...

    How to: 2nd Gen Gauge Cluster Removal and LED Conversion V2

    Although the 5 SMD LED Bulbs look good I did the SMD LED Strip Lighting on mine. Turn out OK so far but need to install. I am adding the Bulb type SMD LED as a last minute change, there were a couple of shadows I didn’t like and I hope the Bulb Types will help. This pic isn’t my...

    How do you replace the Cup on the Front Output Shaft to a Std CV and adapt the SuperLift Drive Shaft to it ? If you had the Electric T/C and used the SL Shaft will it take the same parts ? The OSS, has anyone been able to purchase the Straight Version in the picture ? Seems the...

    Cb install in 98 Eddie Bauer Help please

    Yes I am talking about the "Standing Wave Ratio"; the question is, have you had it checked. Once the CB and the antenna is installed, the coax is run you need to check to make sure that the SWR is at the lowest point it can be called Tuning teh Antenna. How, you need to get an SWR Meter, put...

    Antenna stud mount with ring connector? How to connect to cable?

    IMHO, the Ring Lugs are the best type of connection for the coax for teh average CBer. Ring Lugs are easier to attach, easier to fix, the coax is easier to run through the vehicle without the large PL259 on the end and to radio people the ring Lugs are closer to a 50 ohm match than the standard...

    Two CB antennas? (not what you think)

    inh, In theory a good idea, that is what experimenting is all about but why bother. If trail communications is the only thing you are thinking about for the second antenna, consider a Rubber Duck Antenna, tuned for CB frequency (not for low SWR) and adapted to the Wilson Mount. I used...

    CB Antenna Question

    Have you chgd the plastic blocks around... DON'T. The blocks are there for ground and vibration isolation. It would be far better for you to add a ground wire from the mount to the body then to the frame if possible. After connecting to the body check the SWR if you can't adjust it to the...

    where to mount?

    The Antenna, although the most important part of a CB System is the most compromised as far as location of install and SWR adjustments. Getting a low SWR is good but if the antenna is half blocked by the body of the X then you lose most of the signal into the metal of the body. The best...

    new to CBs, what is right for me?

    Check out Uniden CBs, they make all kinds of CBs, every bell and whistle or size you want. The model 520 is a good entry level CB and has a PA function , if that is something you might want. The model 510 is a little down with one or two less options. I like a CB with an "RF Gain" Control; this...
