    No freightliner I have driven had a cb power post connector. They all had wires up in the cb cubby (rectangular hole in the upper center, just below the upper cubby above the windshield.) Both wires were yellow, so make sure you have extra fuses on hand during hookup.

    Like brsims.........said. Look in the square cubby hole above center of the windshield. The wires should be there unless someone hacked them.

    Cb wires should be in the radio box in the ceiling, if its not wired or your running a big radio, lift up the panel on top of the dash on the right side, on the right of the fuse block you will find high current connections avaiable, 1 for ign. 1 for hot all the time. Make sure you install a fuse on your wire within 6 inches of the end going to the fuse block. Ground it right there to the frame post next to the fuse block.

    If you dont know what your doing stop, ask some one who does. You can burn a truck doen plying here. Becareful.

    Yep...both yellow wires in the cubby on the drivers side...
    Use a test light or multi-meter instead of just hooking the radio up and blowing fuses.

    If they have never been used it may have a label on the wires that say CB power....noticed that in a new freightliner.
