Help Installing a CB in NC

So, as some of you know, I have a 2015 JKUR. Did a small lift and tires last summer.

I am hoping to install a CB radio ASAP because I want it ready for runs this spring/summer.

Problem is, I am terrible with electronics. Notorious for letting the smoke out of them. I also just relocated to Asheville, NC and dont know anyone here. So, I am hoping there is a Wayalifer near me who wouldn't mind giving me a hand. I'm happy to drive to wherever you are within a few hours. I will bring a good attitude, desire to learn and the beer (and cigars if you smoke) of your choice as thank you.

Let me know if this sounds like you.

Sorry dude can't help but it's extremely easy to do. I'm like you and I did it. Plus it's easy setting up your antenna with the swr meter. So I suggest watch some YouTube videos and give it a try. You can do it

I'm in Lexington if you need help but man I would hate for you to drive this far for something that simple... Just ground the black wire and the red one needs to go to a power source. I pulled the fuse out for my radio stuffed the red wire in it and pushed the fuse back in. If you still want some help let me know I smoke Drew Estates Dirt cigars and drink PBR

I bought my kit from Right Channel Radios. Have great instructions and everything for the Cobra 75. Worked great on the Newb run. Now I am just a new guy, just saying this was a way easy install and it worked great on the trail. Shipping was free and fast.

Agree. I got my CB from right channel to. Except I went with the cobra 29lx and I got the mounting bracket from poison spyder. It was cheaper than the Tera flex

Thank you to everyone who responded. I appreciate the offers of help and the confidence you all (guess I should say y'all, I live here now) have in my ability.

Dchotrod - sent you a PM.

To everyone else around here, we should have a meet up. I'd love to get to know more jeepers in the area.
