You are correct. PA capable, but no speaker yet! If I found one I would try it for some fun!

Nothing quite like holding the mic next to a speaker on the “good part” of a song or reminding another driver to pay attention to the road. I would ever rile up my dogs with it everyday when I get home either 
. There’s just something about country music that sounds better on a pa when working near the truck in a field…
I need a new cb & new speaker. A rock from a tire cracked my housing and it never sounded right. I just never did mount one in the hummer yet. What’s wrong with me?!

Got the back brakes pulled apart and cleaned up/regreased.
Fronts really need new rotors, the junkyard eBay ones barley lasted 1 year. Also trying to get new Viton o-rings for the catch can. Im having issues lately on start woth a puff of smoke. Common issue with the PCV system i guess on these. I really need to pull the drivers valve cover and inspect drain ports in the PCV system.

Been having a issue on cold starts. Puff of white/blue smoke. Definitely smells of oil. It all started when I did the new steering gear.
My hypothesis is my PCV system has an issue, allowing oil into the intake. Thus burning it off mostly noticeable on starts. I guess its common on this truck, and there are updated valve covers to remedy this. Ultimately I need to see what version cover is on there. But looking down the throat confirms oil is getting in there.
I had the front of the truck jacked to the moon to help bleed the steering system, since then I've been having this issue that is getting a little better day by day. But it leads me to getting the catch can installed ASAP until I have time to peel off the valve cover. Im trying to find a new set of o-rings as the old ones disintegrated.

I found a thread on how and where to drill the oil holes in the valve cover. Did it myself
