IN STOCK NOW!
This is a premier CB Antenna Kit for the 2018+ Wrangler JL and it includes everything you need to have a high-quality, adjustable tip, name-brand (Firestik), antenna on your new Wrangler JL! The bracket is fabricated from stainless steel and includes unique, stainless steel mounting hardware. Why stainless? It is VERY important that your antenna achieves a good RF ground at the point where it mounts. If you are using a powdercoated bracket, the RF ground that you can achieve is compromised - so powdercoating is out. If we give you a non-painted steel bracket, it will corrode and rust. Therefore, stainless steel is a must! And brackets don't have to be boring! Inspired by the numerous small Jeep history "tells" throughout the JL, we incorporated a unique design with our bracket to help further set your Jeep apart. But, make no mistake, this kit has well thought-out, high quality components throughout.
We've discussed the bracket, so let's take a look at the unique qualities of the coax. On the "antenna end" you will find Firestik's unique and compact FireRing connector. It has a very low, modern and professional profile and it is less susceptible to the elements compared to traditional connectors. On the "CB end" you need something as small as possible so that you can route it in through the tailgate and up to the dash area of the Jeep. This is virtually impossible to do with a traditional (large) PL-259 connector. Our coax uses a small diameter mini-UHF connector that can be easily routed. Once the cable is up at the CB, simply thread on the included mini-UHF to PL-259 adapter!
Moving on to the antenna, your kit will include either a 3' or 4' Firestik FireFly antenna. This is one of Firestik's newest antennas and it is lighter and more flexible than older antennas - but it won't "wag" when going down the freeway. All of these Firestik antennas have an adjustable tip so you can adjust them for maximum performance! On our JL Rubicon with 35" tires and a Mopar 2.5" lift, the tip of the 4' antenna is at 96" from the ground. For a stock height Rubicon on stock tires, the tip would be ~ 92-93". Of course if you select the 3' antenna option, each of these heights would be ~12" shorter. The mount fits all 2-door and 4-door 2018+ JL Wranglers! The JL CB Antenna Kit is IN STOCK!
