Here is my setup, midland handheld that has a mounted setup also. I then got A pillar mounts, mounted a Wilson antenna, because I wanted to run the ground myself and Wilson already has a ground wire, ran the antenna cable through the firewall on the passenger side, added a cb mount to the OH Crap bar and there it is. As noted, you get better range with a mounted antenna. I also added some lights :). Hope this helps

I did not want a full size cb, so this works exceptionally all well for me. Take pictures and have fun!

I know this is an older post-but……. I am about to mount some lights on my A pillar and also need a spot for an outside antenna. That mount would would work perfect. What brand are those mounts? Thanks

Look up GMRS Radio on the internet. All the Jeep sponsored events I believe are using that instead of CB. The group I trail with use GMRS as well. You do need a license for the GMRS radio currently $70, but was supposed to drop to $35 last year, but the government is taking their time doing it. No test for the license and the fee covers all of your family members for ten years.
Drops to $35 April 16th

Hey there, sorry for the delay, I check back in once or twice a month. They no longer make the one I got. however, this can work. I found a few but would not recommend them, either the metal appeared too thin, or the CB cmount would have been on a 90 degree angel. My concern mounting this way would be if and when you run into brush, that could move/fold the antenna back towards the cab.

This seem to be the updated one they now make. Take a look at how some people mounted items in the user picture below. One has a light on the side, cube on top, and an antenna also behind the cube. Hope this help and have fun!!
