Installing a Cobra 29 Limited Classic CB unit in a 2020 Dodge 3500 Ram Tradesman is easy to get done. Don’t worry Dodge Ram has provided a simple entry point for this on dash install that is simple, quick, and looks professional. Join me as I walk through the install of a CB unit in my truck.

My grandfather Thought there was nothing better than a CB Radio! The base station was on 24 /7 ! They were in every one of his vehicles! He was the man if someone needed help with their radio or setup...

It's nice to have a CB in case something ever happens and cell phones go down . I haven't used one in years . My buddies 70's Trans Am came factory with a CB you don't see that anymore .

You did a good job. With the wire connectors you bought, you don't need to Strip the ends. You placed a wires inside the connectors and then squeezed the metal Piece down, and it connects to wires for you.

Nice job but does the metal bracket need to be grounded? (Years ago... we sheet metal screwed em into the bottom of a metal square body chevy dash, these new trucks are all plastic). I haven't put mine in my new truck yet as I was curious to the bracket grounding. I like how you've done that, how does the velcro hold with rough roads? (Vid is 2 yrs old, updates?)
@ArkansasWoodcutter
@ArkansasWoodcutter 6 ай бұрын
It works ok. The Velcro makes for ease of “hiding” it when away from the truck. If you drive easy no issues. For 4wheel off road you would want more secure attachments for sure

Curious why you stripped the wire before you inserted it into the connector? Those are designed to pierce the insulation. No stripping necessary. Pretty good idea pulling power from that 12v outlet. I'm going to do the same on my 2020 3500.

I’d toss that CB and go with a 2m/70cm radio. Your range on 11m is only a few miles. On 2m I can reach out 40 miles to a repeater without issue. I mounted my Yeasu FTM-400 right in the center console & tapped right into the power and ran the antenna through the back of the console and under the back mats though the back. Hitting a C4FM repeater you can talk globally if your on Fusion/ Wires X. Upgrade that CB and you’ll never look back. Your mileage may very. 73.

@@ArkansasWoodcutter unfortunately that method did not work. After doing more research on some Ram forums I found that my “Pedal Commander” like accessory was the culprit. The cb causes some interference with it causing that code. Solution for time being, remove above said accessory and have trouble free cb usage.
