How to Install New CB in 2010 Pete 386

if there are not a couple of holes already or screws in place on the access panel there under the overhead near the power connections, ten you are going to have to drill a couple of starter holes and screw the bracket to it. i know that in the 386 trucks the company i worked for had a couple of threaded holes inplace to attach the bracket for the cb radio.

 

The mounting area is just thick plastic. The scews will drill their own holes. Get a good screw driver, apply alot of pressure and screw in the screws.

 

I've never been in a 386 pete, but what about velcro straps? I've seen some really clean work done with them.

 

Hi im just a student truck driver but i know alot about trucks. You said you had a Peterbilt 386. You could mount it any where you want in your truck, but the best place is to me is right over head, there is a special spot for a cb and the power conecter is right there so it doesnt require much wire. Or if you wanted to mount in on your dash you could do that to, that requires more wiring, but remember to always run it through some fuze so you dont wreck or burnout your radio. And make sure you tune your radios cb antennas with the cal or swr. Hope it work for you and if you have any more problems just message me. Thanks
