if you listen to the old timers they tell you to put a 10 foot antenna on your roof with a 1000 watt amp so you can talk to your cousin in arkansas.i might mount a 4 footer on the rear bumper or swingaway though so branches don't rip it off

Don't the 1988's have a roof mounted console where the ESOF buttons are? Could it be mounted up there, with the wires running under the headliner and down the pillar?

Here's mine


Its not the best spot... Occasionally it bumps my leg which then makes it hit the 4wd shifter. You probably don't have an old school handheld CB anyway....
