Hey, just wondering if you could send a few more pics of how you mounted your cb and how you wired it, I will be installing mine this coming weekend. I took the pussy way out and got a look-a-like cell phone antenna that goes through the glass, I didn't think my truck would look good w/ a big old whip and I couldn't find a small enough of one to my likeing so, just wondering if you could help me out w/ the mounting and wiring

Just wanted to say thanks a lot for telling me about those shackles, I installed them last Saturday and it is just what I was looking for, the only pain in the dick of it was getting the upper rear left's stock bolt out of the bushing, but it was just what I was looking for, thank a lot man, stop by and let me know what you think... - Jake

Man, great Explorer, I have the same one and I was looking to put a lift in the rear just as you did but I never found a shakle kit that I liked. I would apprechiate it if you could tell me where you got it or how I could get the same one, I have the stupid stock sag in the rear on Explorers, it makes them look like shit. Since I have gotten mine I have done a few modifictaion but not too much, check it out when you get the chance, I gave you 5 stars all the way around. Anyway great truck... - Jake
