Lets Build Us A Mobile Pt.5 The End!

[@DonkeyStomperProducts]

Nice Mobile, I used to have kill DC to the Stereo Amps, The RF would turn Remote wire on and create a huge Sub Woofer Talk Back.

[@nwirc]

WOW. I know this video series is over a year old but I watched the hole thing and my god, you sir have some amazing skills! I don't blame you for not doing these types of installs anymore unless people wants to bring the green backs. The best install I've ever seen to date.. Thanks for educating us!

[@James-x1z]

I have watched all the series and it was mind blowing. I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have realized I didn't know as much as I thought I did.

[@Sky1]

I remember back in the days of Shootouts some guy named "33 from NJ" showed up with a car that had the back seat removed and hollowed out to the trunk. He had a giant AC Tube Powered Amp, said it was a 50KW tube. Opened the Hood and there were AC Alternators going completely around the front of the Engine. His antenna was a Solid Copper (looked like a ground rod) on the back of his sedan. He said the antenna would get shorter over time! He went up against someone in our area that did 6KW dead Key. Before they lined up he got out of his car and suggested that everyone disconnects their antennas. The watergate tape they played at the award ceremony was amazing, he said "33 and I just Keyed" there was not even a scratch in the background. Everyone then wanted to see his set up. He put a Bird Meter on the roof of the car and said NOBODY GET NEAR THE ANTENNA OR TOUCH THE CAR! Keyed up and dead keyed 33 Thousand watts, several people saw it including myself. The engine wend from a high rev and struggled. After that everyone in Boston started switching to AC Amps in the mobiles. Those were some good times. :-)

Mr BBI. What an amazing build, very very sweet. Thanks for all the knowledge that you share for free. Most people charge for that kind of knowledge. Stay safe and have a very blessed evening.

[@EricTechstuffs]

rubber grommets with every metal to metal connection everywhere! Been there. all my equipment in an electricians van for long commercial jobs... all gets looked at for vibration.

[@EdzashedFudwinkle]

Would you recommend ferrite beads on all coax connections mate

[@GroundControl204]

Cosmetically on the outside of the suburban it would be hard for me not to install a knight ryder scrolling LED bar in the grille. If Michael Knight had a truck... It would be this one👍🏻

[@commslinktv]

Right! I was thinking the same thing

Now that's would be cool

[@SkyRyder5007]

Maybe a Vader Hood Ornament??? 😜 Nice Job Luke! Very Nice! That Black on Black looks Fed'ish or like a Presidential body guard vehicle but way better, maybe the Radio PoPo won't know if you're one of them or not & get lost looking for ya, those Anti-RF Creepers! BTW: That's a Awesome Call 204 Ground Control! Luke Fyi: Might want to Beef Up the landing gears before you go jumping over other ride's or doing Kit's stunts tho! Just sayin... give Siri a Kit or Vader voice upgrade... SpooKay! 😂😂😂 P.S. Thanks for the video DIY Tip's & Trick's. Awesome Job, Awesome!!! 🧲🔥💥👍😁

[@TheBigDawgz71]

I been having the same problem with my LED headlights interfering with my receive. I’ve added ferrite chokes at the LED drivers and it helped. I can use my radio driving at night now but there is still interference. Is that type 37 you put on the truck computer harness just a size of ferrite? Is it 37mm. Killer mobile setup!!

[@cordaman176]

Im having the same issue. Cant get rid of it. I put ferrites on them too, didnt help at all

[@F1r5o7g]

You're the first person that I've seen on KZbin that has explained how to do a mobile cb radio setup from start to finish. It's very truly much appreciated all you do, Mr.BBI F1r5o7g waving from South Carolina

[@561ENTERPRISE]

Just need to finish watching the battery and wiring video. Great stuff BBI.

[@rallypoint1]

The rear defroster..that’s genius!!!! Makes total sense. I just went and unplugged mine. I never use it and one less “antenna” to bring RFI. Thank you BBI!!!

[@bblod4896]

Thanks for memorializing this install on video. The time it takes to set up, film, edit and render a video takes time and I believe your viewers appreciate it. Nice set of BBI jumper cables too 😎

Thanks for reiterating about the butyl and painting it. I have one Honda Civic EX driver door bonded from your instructions. It looks so Pro! The truck is next. 😂Dual 1 inch bonds on Honda panels 😂Got Down Breaker

Thanks again.. I’m rolling in a 2019 Kenworth T880 and learn much from your videos on about how to better my system.. Ranger X9, wired direct to battery, decent Monkey Made clone off the passenger curb mirror..

Really appreciate the mobile series. A big thanks from the first NYC guy rocking skullcracka amps

[@Slugg-O]

Amazing engineering and superb attention to detail - every detail. Damn that's nice. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@ericknapp3165]

Definitely like where radio is mounted, going to look into that myself. Awesome job

[@johnsch2957]

Do you have any additional filters on the 2730 or are the built-in filters enough to prevent damage to the receiver when running power on CB?

[@MrBigR928]

Excellence 💯👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 The only advice i could give you Mr.BBI is don't fry bacon when your butt nekkid🤣🤣🤣

[@TimberTramp]

You could have your copper plates, where the 500mil wire comes and connects, laser engraved for pos/neg…..instead of the label maker…fun to upgrade as you go..

[@EricTechstuffs]

Now *THAT* is a mobile install !

[@davidlewis8124]

Flawless 👌✌️

[@alessandroconcas]

Great clean install, big cable for big toys, very useful information about rf problem ( and have same pump issue on my 07 mustang gt, low fule pressure problem from rear defroster) can't use hf!/cb radio think some led hid highlight problem,, now only use only my ham radio tmd700... 73 iz3qvb from Italy... Most of the solution have used in my JKU (2.8 diesel rf machine!!!) cb in Italy still only for offroad ( 70% have it, 10 ham and last no radio comms) ciao!

[@root7205]

Another awesome video. Thanks for the knowledge you share with the rest of us!!!

[@JamesHalfHorse]

If it doesn't fall through I will be buying a Yukon and am rewatching this before I put any holes in it. Should be better to ground than my truck. I know from watching this and your facebook that I have RF coming back into the cab and freaking out my gauges. Driving a diesel 1 ton daily as a work truck is beating it and my wallet to death. I am going to have to do some digging. I would like to see all the radio and electronic installs. I have done all my own car stereo stunts since I was a kid and have the hearing to prove it but all the little things to make it look really good is what I need. This will be something big enough and rugged enough that I can comfortably pack the stuff I need in the back, throw a ladder up on the roof and take it up a narrow deer trail (in some places so narrow a rear wheel is hanging off a 10ft drop by the road or out into a cowpasture. Something I can haul my mini horse in the back to take them visiting, pile 4 big people in it to go to the store in an ice storm and still clean up nicely as a business and personal truck I can pull up to my clients not looking like farmer Bob and when they look inside they see a shining example of the quality of work that I do. That and it will low key look like an official vehicle with a bunch of low pro antennas on it.

[@4dailyrunner]

Thank you for the mobile series. I learned a lot.

I love this truck..dude, you are so lucky to own this badass truck. I know the rest will be beautiful. I love watching your videos!!

[@StalinTheMan0fSteel]

This gave me flashbacks to an old issue of "Popular Communications" (Tom Kneitel) from the early 90's. It featured these Suburbans etc set up like yours, multiple alternators and huge amplifiers etc with the technology of that era. That was a great magazine, before the internet. I looked forward to receiving it every month. 😀

[@Sammenluola]

I learned like a ton from this series. Sincere thanks!

You can ground the rear defroster while transmitting with an SPDT relay.

Off topic, I know, but what 6 1/2" or 6x9" speakers do you like?

[@DanielStinebaugh]

beautiful install (and truck overall!) also just wanted to say thanks for your road trip video's with some of the legends or radio, I've been 10-7 for a decade, but gotta say you have me wanting to invest in AM again!

[@EdzashedFudwinkle]

Thats a bad ass truck, would cost a fortune to run here in England, we pay around $2.00 per litre, 4.5litres to a gallon, so $8.00 a gallon(ish). And you thought your fuel prices in the US were high because they've just gone up. Still a lovely ride though, I'll go watch the video now 😉🇬🇧

[@48pluto]

This was the video i was waiting for. I just wanted to see the radio, amp and antenna installed. Lets say the end result after learning about grounding and wiring. This is a great setup you have there!

Cool Thanks man! A lot of people don't realize just how much power they're dealing with and just how dangerous it is. Don't let your local stereo installer attempt this, they'll burn your vehicle to the ground. This is kind of insane for a mobile mount, and I appreciate how difficult this was.

So! Is this thing all set up for AM or SSB? Because they are different! I NEED to know! I'm currently running a Cobra 148GTL, early Philippine mfg, (has all the components) using a RM KL-400 amp that provides 300PEP on SSB and around 150 AM watts in my car. But, I could use more power. What do you suggest?

Hello there Mr.BBI thanks for all of the time you put in to the vids we appreciate it.But i have to put this out there and i don't mean any disrespect at all my friend but i sure hope you didn't just trust the ol ryobi impact to tighten all the nuts down proper i've owned the infamous ryobi impact and it does not have enough kick i usually finish them all off by hand thanks again for all the vids.
