Here are the pics I mounted the compressor perpendicular to the frame rail and the cab up towards the front of the truck mounted the tank behind the compressor 1 pair of horns behind the tank pair 2 behind the first pair I used that angled metal with the holes in it to run along the frame rail and the cab, i used the bolts for the tube steps on my truck for the piece of metal against the cab and i drilled and tapped the frame and bolted the other piece of metal on the frame rail, then i used two pieces of flat stock to drill holes in and mount the compressor and the tank on on top of the two metal pieces. The horns are very light so i mounted them to the frame rail using self tapping screws and the metal with holes in it before you mount the tank make sure to attach all fittings into the ports on the tank and the compressor hose to the tank. after everything was mounted i spliced a wire into the positive lead of the stock horn to a toggle switch and from the toggle switch to the valve that would open the air from the tank to the horns. - this will allow you to use your stock horn button to honk the train horn and your regular horn at the same time, and when you want to flip the switch and you have just your stock horn back. Next i hooked up a wire to an ignition source and ran it to the relay, after that i ran a fused 12v wire to the relay. use the ignition source or the compressor will kick on and kill your battery from there i ran a wire from the relay to the pressure switch and to the compressor - all of the relay and pressure switch work cuts the compressor on when pressure goes below 115psi and cuts it off when it gets to 145psi after this you ground the compressor and the valve then i took the air hose, ran it from the tank to the valve from the valve to the manifold and from the manifold to all of the horns lastly i put on my filter and i just pushed it through one of the holes on the metal that i installed *NOTE* eveything will be tight but it will fit after all of that VIOLA! completely hidden triain horn videos soon (as soon as i can get away from my schoolwork for a while)
haha yeah i have one video but it was taken on a non digital video camera of my friends so i have to figure out how to get it on the net and then it will end up here haha
Looks great! I noticed that you had some mud build up in some of the photos and it also appears that you run an aggressive mud type tire (Nitto Mud Grapplers). Is the terrain you run in going to give the train horns any trouble? LT.
no i think i will be ok.... i mounted the horns rear facing so that they wouldnt get filled with crap and i dont run mud tooo much......but if i do i will get under there with something to wipe everything up.....im thinking about getting a sheet of aluminum and bending it up over the front sort of like a mud flap
That sounds like a good idea anyhow, just because of the debris that will come off of those meaty tires you are running. LT.
I have the 6350 on board air 100 percent duty cycle kit on my truck with the Quad horns and I upgraded the valve and lines to 1/2 and have a 5 and 3 gallon tank. I can air up tires and scare the crap out of people at the same time lol the 1/2 lines make the horns so much louder. I love them and sell a lot of there kits these days since there factory is just an hour away from me
