I'll have to figure something out. With a dual receive ham and a cb, I think I'd rather have separate speakers.
The volume's work from the radios them selves. You can have each as soft or as loud as you want. I can immediately tell the difference between the two from the sound quality.

Where did you get the speaker, and what brand is it?

Installed a new CB Speaker. Fits like a glove. Inspiration courtesy of Toro.

Adjusted my Radlos to reduce my rake since the AAL's and Shackles.

Loosen the lock nut

Gently convince the adjustment nut to CRANK UP. Not easy, even with two people.

Rake adjusted. It's not level, but our rigs are designed to have a little rake.

Gott the air conditioner fixed on my X, installed Nology Hot Wires which increase the ignition wires spark from 15k to 45k Volts,  got an oil cooler thermostat installed in-line, and added black shock boots to my Fox 2.0 shocks.

Had a small oil leak on the oil cooler thermostat hoses.  got those changed and added 1/2" NPT male to -8AN fittings, and -8AN female to hose barb to make the oil cooler and thermnstat more serviceable and easily removable. 
Had to leave to AZ for a few days.r

I should be running a damn chop-shop!
Pulled my coil-overs out in 18 min flat!

Now, off to get re-sprung.

That has to be some kind of record.   Averaging 9 mins per side?  :o

BTW who is doing the re-springing for you?

It's better to sweat in peace than bleed in war. Death touches all men.

A local shop. Should be a quick spring swap.

So what are you saying we are going to need a good set of spring compressors in our repertoire  :D   My problem is I've always considered that kind of a "Death defying" act.   Actually I wish I had had them at Superstition Mtn.  when I was trying to put that coilover back together.

Spring compressors spook me, but as much as I'm paying to have someone do them, I should just go out and get one my self.
