autumnwalker Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Center hole on the hubs the same size? ...or are you getting new rims? I don't understand your question. The tire in the pic is one Clarence had - he only has the one wheel so I'm getting new wheels. Obviously the tire in the pic fit the hub properly - it's from a 2500 HD.

Eastcoastcam Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 I don't understand your question. A quick google search said that the Dodge 8 bolt is the same pattern as the H2, but the the centre is smaller than the Dodge rim... I was assuming that Tim's rims were 8-bolt Dodge...

I was assuming that Tim's rims were 8-bolt Dodge... Ahhh - so the ones Tim had were universal and were the correct hub size; however, they were not a matching set... one of them was a 16.5" wheel so I'm back to the drawing board.

autumnwalker Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 No, I just need at least 4 wheels which are 16" in diameter, 8x6.5" bolt pattern and at least 7" wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastcoastcam Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Hahaha!!! Ive heard that joke 50 times today... Never gets old, wait until tomorrow when I put the new 35's on it! Awesome! Make sure you have a piece paracord or something tied to the stool and the door...makes it easy to pull up into the Jeep after use ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Command Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Installed a USB audio adapter, goodbye CD's! I thought taking out the radio would be a lot more difficult then it was, 2 screws and she popped right out :) The most difficult part was getting the airbag warning light to stop flashing on the dash haha (dunno why it came on after I removed the radio but I have a hunch). I also painted a new trailer connector (it was zinc plated and looks weird on the black truck) and will install that into my bumper tomorrow...hopefully. No more ripping the connector off on trails :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUXterra Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 If you unplugged the passenger side air bag off light, it'll trip the system every time, ask mw how I know...lol. I know the keying procedure to reset the system by heart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SQRLPWR Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 My Firestik MK204R Door Jamb Mini Kit order from Walcott CB http://www.walcottcb.com arrived (the other day). I was really impressed with the Walcott CB order process and delivery was super fast! The Firestik kit came with 18' of Coax Cable Rubber Grommet Stainless Steel Antenna Mount with Swivel Antenna Stud I routed the Firestik coax though the middle of the X away from any system cables, and fitted a fiberglass antenna. I think it looks much better than the Wilson 500 mag mount....the jury is out for performance :-D I just need to source a spring for it as the fiberglass pole is very rigid and I've heard of them shattering when bent too far!

TRUXterra Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 You can find springs at any truck stop or truck dealership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar4x4 Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Looks good. I'm going to consider one of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derekmac Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 I had a quick look at what the Big Stop had, and it seems like they have a fair selection of different mounts and CB accessories. You might be able to find something there. I think I remember seeing spring mounts as well, but not 100% sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjoecanadian Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 You don't need a spring, unless you are constantly smacking the antenna off stuff. If you were doing that I would just remove when not used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
