I finally got around to buying a C.B. and P.A for my truck.

I just got it all wired in and mounted.

Here are the pix.

Mounted


Hard wired into the fuse box. sry its blury


P.A. speaker mounted in bed

 

looks good, but id think about remounting that speaker in the engine bay somewhere, cuz your not gunna be able to hear it that well with the tannue cover and its gunna be loud as hell in the cab

 

ya, i wasnt sure where to put it and i was worried about feed-back if i put it in the engine bay. I may remount it in the engine bay, but it works for now. Its actually pretty loud where it is now.

 

Check my cardomain for where i mounted mine. Ithink its a good location and it is out of the way.

 

A few things.

Engine bay for the speaker, no question. I have a 100 watt speaker in my grill and I don't get feedback. I think your 8 watt PA will be jsut fine :)

You need to redo that power wire. It appears you have the + wire shoved right into an empty fuse slot and there is no inline fuse. You need to use the proper connector to plug into the fuse box and you need an inline fuse no less than 1' from there.

 

Here is the best pic i have of mine. Mounted on the drivers side DIRECTLY behind the grille. Its a 30 watt radio shack unit. LOUD and clear as hell.

 

What i did with the fuse was basically cut a fuse in half and sedared (SP) the wire to it. it plugs in very nicely and is not "shoved" in there. there is a fuse on the power line so i dont have to worry bout that.

 

any problems with it when going mudding?

 

wow a pic of jeys truck stock...wow


good CB...try behind grill for better sound

 

Excellent. You couldn't tell any of that from the picture so I'm glad it's a lot better than I thought.
