Yes, gathering. I’m thinking about the Easter jeep Safari in Moab.
And since everyone now knows I know nothing about wranglers nor cameras, here comes a stupid question:
I’m looking at quadratec catalog. Is there a more portable CB radio/antenna that does not require drills and skills like in Jenn and John’s video? Something with suction cups or something? (The last sentence was a joke, I’m not THAT dumb, unless someone says there is such a thing! Lol)

I just received my Cobra 75WXST compact remote CB. Check it out, when you're not using it you can unplug it and take it in the house. There's a spot to mount my antenna on my tailgate reinforcement plate but somebody makes a mount that bolts on to the stock tire carrier. I liked this model because you can set up a different vehicle for about $30 and just take the mike & plug it in. Will let you know when I get it installed.

I just received my CB pictured. I liked this one because we’re so cramped for space & everything is in the handset. You just have to mount a power/antenna block somewhere & plug into it. You can also buy an additional block to mount in a second vehicle. I’ve got a spot to mount the antenna on my tailgate reinforcement but I’ve seen a bracket that bolts on to the stock tire carrier. I’ll report back when I get it installed.

Sorry for the double post, wanted to include the picture!

Here is mine sitting on the bumper. You can kinda see the scuff mark from the tire on the bumper. No way it will shake or put extra stress on the carrier imho

Finally got my light bar installed last mod I'm doing for awhile. It was a bit of a pain . You have to run the wires through the fire wall on the passenger side . To do this you have to temporarily remove the inside fender. This is also the way you install the aux switches if you're doing them after market.

Sitting here like.....

Sorry gang, I didn’t mean to be such a tease! I got a late start today. All good, just grabbing a cup of coffee while the dealership finishes up the paperwork. Some pics tonight, I promise! Stay tuned...

Here’s the picture

Thanks, looks like you got the steel bumper too. How are you liking the exhaust?

When I put Beezer in reverse, the camera comes on and I get an annoying chime & a light on the EVIC that says I’ve got something to the back right of the Jeep. Is this normal?

Is it seeing the tire?

That’s cool Gabe, lmk how you like it. I’ve been standing here for ages waiting for the wheel n tire switch.. might miss my buddy at the tiki bar

Btw just looking at it in person there’s no way this thing is fitting on stock carrier with the shallow steel bumper cutout

I like the way the larger tires look on the steel wheels.

It’s here!!! And it’s perfect.
I stopped for a few holes of golf and won’t be home until after nightfall. More / better shots to come soon!

I've been looking at handhelds. I don't know anything about them but I've got this one in my cart:

I’ve been missing in action and it’s nice to see originals still on here and some new members too! My first day of summer vacation started with my Jeep getting delivered. But I’ve had a whirlwind of a summer with my mom having a major heart attack and passing away. We have spent the past couple of weeks trying to catch up on the summer we lost (All of July). Today we had our last beach day before I start back to school! I was able to get a nice picture before the sun set.
