Jeep CB DIY Mount: JL and JT

DIY CB or HAM radio mout for Jeep JL or JT.

[@samsoncarr9950]

I did almost the same thing in my jku. Instead of the extra plate, I just cut the ears, or the curled ends off the superstrut and bent it to fit. Also they make a spring nut that goes inside of the superstrut and locks in place....I love that stuff, so versatile.

I built one too! Thanks!!

[@KasparBrygger]

I might have used a VHF/UHF radio if it was me. But I guess you have your reasons for choosing a CB :)

Definitely using your design this weekend on my new Mojave. Thanks for the help. What's the best way to run coax and power feed? I have an idea but if you have a better way I'm all for it.

[@PreparedAirman]

I ran the power along the top of the windshield and down by the passengers legs. For the antenna, I went across the top of the windshield and down to the conner of the A piller. If you fold your windshield forward like all jeeps have you can run the cable through and open area underneath. This is how I did it for a front antenna. Back antenna I ran the top of my windshield down the drivers side to the floorboards. Then back to the vent behind the rear seats and out to the top.

@@PreparedAirman Nice! I appreciate the help. This is my first Jeep and it's definitely a bit different from a regular pickup.

Man you kinda look like Lieutenant dangle and a bit of JR from Reno 911 😂😂 mustache power!

.LOL did this back in 2014..cost me $5.00 for the Uni-strut.

[@BrutustheGladiator]

Would you happen to have the dimensions ?

[@OrangeBlood485]

one last question, you mentioned you cut the brackets to size, what size were they before you cut them? I went looking at the big orange home improvement store and was a bit lost! Thank you, sorry for the questions but I really wanted to build one of these this coming weekend.

[@PreparedAirman]

Send me an email and I'll send you some photos and measurements. [e-mail]

[@Busterblader13]

@@PreparedAirmanany chance you still have the measurements for the bracket arms, etc?

[@dwayneennis5391]

Do you happen to have the size of the bolts you used to go down through the roll bar. Nice job BTW. I was hoping someone did something like this. $120 for a bar and a few bits is pretty steep.

[@PreparedAirman]

I used 2 1/2" half threaded bolts with a fender washer on top and bottom.

[@josh1611]

Hey man I would like to ask you about something and id love if you could help me with it . So I wanna know if I could contact you and how

[@PreparedAirman]

You can message me over Instagram. Thatblue_5.oh

[@OrangeBlood485]

does it impede your ability to remove the Freedom Tops?

[@PreparedAirman]

No, they are still fully removable with no issues.

I used to like your videos. You always give great information. But I can't trust you with that stache. Unsubscribed.
