Product Description

Created specifically for Jeeps, 4x4s and other off-road vehicles, this kit has everything you'll need for a high-quality CB installation. The most important part of any CB setup is the antenna and mount and we've included high-quality components for both. Our kit includes a radio, antenna, mounting hardware, coax and even an SWR meter for antenna tuning.

Radio:This kit is built around the Uniden Pro 510XL, a popular choice for Jeep and off-road vehicle owners who need a reliable, compact and affordable CB. Its compact size makes it ideal for vehicles where space is at a premium and the extended two year warranty speaks to its rugged field reliability. Due to popular demand, we've also made it possible to upgrade to the Uniden 520 if you'd like the rugged reliability of the 510 with the added features of a PA system and RF gain.

Antenna: On the trail, you need a durable yet flexible antenna that can survive getting snagged, bent, bowed and abused. Subsequently, we picked an antenna that can bend 180 degrees without breaking - the Wilson FLEX. These 3' and 4' antennas provide superior protection against snapping and hold up well to the rigors of off-road use.

Mount & Coax: We include a choice of six kits which allows for a great deal of mounting flexibility and customization. All kits include a quality CB antenna mount as well as high-grade Fire-Flex or Belden coax. Please see the mounting links below for individual kit details.



SWR Meter and Jumper: Every kit includes a SWR meter and coax jumper to tune your antenna for optimal performance. If you're not familiar with the tuning process you can read why it's important and how to do it properly at the CB Resources page.

Pros: Outstanding customer service, fast shipping. Installation and setup was well explained and completed in less than one hour. The initial tuning for a low SWR was accomplished with no antenna length adjustment. I highly recommend using Right Channel Radios for all of your CB needs.

Cons: None

Usage: I have yet to use this radio long term. I have only used it when testing the setup. Future usage will be off-road to talk with fellow Jeepers.

I am very pleased with the Cb I bought. It was the Uniden 4 x 4 package. It was easy to install in my truck. I get great range. Even at 8 to 10 miles I was getting and giving good quality sound. I will be ordering from Right Channel Radios again for my other truck.

My only complaint was the Wrangler hood mount. Although the mount does look good and is easy to install, if you put the antenna anywhere near hood of the Jeep you just pick up noise from the engine. The radio's noise will match the revs of your engine and will drive you nuts, as well as render the radio useless while the engines running.

SWR meter is on the verge of death, its quite cheap and well.... you have to hold it upside down to get a reading. Worked great for the first few weeks, but after having to remount my antenna, it's not doing so good. Luckily remount was easy due to the fact I found a nifty shelf bracket that fits my antenna perfectly. I ended up mounting it to spare tire carrier.

At least, according to my ailing SWR meter I have reading right around 1.2 for channels 1 through 40, which is an improvement over the hood mount which the best reading I could get was around 1.4 to 1.8.

Good kit overall, Great wilson flex antenna, great little radio. Basically the kit delivers on what it promises...as long as you make sure not to order the wrangler hood mount. As for the SWR meter it still works albeit intermittently. If you buy this kit you will be happy and that's pretty good. If it wasn't for the swr meter it would have gotten an easy 4 stars.
