Big Radio in a 2007 Western Star

One of the trucks I have I had a bracket made to hold a ham radio (Icom 7000).

It is made to use the defroster vent screws for the back side and used the right dash panel to anchor it to the dash. It puts the radio at an angle because of the lack of depth with the WS dash, it doesn't obstruct the view of the fender spots or the right side window.

Pretty simple but also effective.

The mount has been in the truck for a while now and has had no issues at all.

Sorry I can't post a picture of it, but you can get an idea what I'm talking about.

 

I miss my 2006 star car...Think im gonna cry...Had wicked trans/rec on that truck with a slightly tweeked 29ltd..Im gonna have to dog up a pic when i get home.

yep that's him .....

 

Was the cab made out of Steel by any chance?
Or was the body made out of aluminum?

 

Steel they went to a hybrid cab just this past year. The cab is heavy like old trucks.

 

I think i was running the rfx 75 on said cobra with a pair of duel coil 10k...
