CB Antennas? How did you mount them?
I used to have dual 4ft firesticks on my GMC but Im afraid to do it on my Ranger because of how much smaller it is.... I think it might look goofy. Anyway..... post some pics of your antenna setups. Whips, fiberglass sticks, window antennas, whatever I wanna see it. Also.... where did you mount ur radio?

don't do dual anttenna's at all it just dosnt go with any truck other then dually's and 18 wheelers some f250's or 2500's can pull it off but not a ranger
i've got my cb radio mounted where a ohc would go,i think there is a crappy on my profile here,and for antenna i just have a 102in whip mounted to the middle of the bed up sorry no pics tho lol total fail i know lol

Those duals posted above is about as worthless as **** on a boarhog.
Here's mine....
'99+ Super Duty fender mount...click here for linky. I shortened it by 3/4" to make it more asthetically pleasing to my eyes. I also used nutserts/threadserts instead of self tappers. Alot more secure and alot more permanent and it also helps with grounding.
Running the best style of antenna stud that uses crimp on terminals as opposed to the junk screw on type. Running a 5' FirestikII.
I don't know if you care about radio, but here's one shot of my 60w Cobra 29 LTD BC...

I was looking on here to see if anyone mounted theirs on their rear bumper, like I wanna do with mine, I wanna use mine instead of the stock antenna for am/fm, and I won't ever actually use it as a cb, I don't need to, I just like the look. But I want to hide my mount inside the corner of the bumper kinda, the lower the better cuz its a 7 foot fiberglass deal. Anybody done something like that?
