Im lookin in to gettin some air horns for my truck. I want the "big rig" or "train" sound, and i was just wonderin what yall have found to be the best, and dont wanna get stuck with some high pitched ones. thanx

 

I have these ones. Got them from the local freightliner dealer. 3 trumpet set.

 

sweet setup y 2 tanks tho

 

wanna see the horn I have on my truck click on the word horn in my sig........ as for compressors I have tw viair 380c's and an 8.5 gallon tank, mounted about where cbrahs has his. Using a half inch ball valve to control the horn and all 3/8ths shop line for air lines. relays and compressors are mounted in the tool box out of the weather.

 

I used 2 tanks cause with dual pumps like Mike has, i can run air tools and actually fill up a 40" tire and not sit there all day.

 

If your looking for a deal a big rig salvage yard has good deals on good horns most times thats were i got mine even got one of an old fire truck. And those air compreosrs made for air ride suspentions fill fast and go to 200 psi

 

thats what i was thinkin about doin, just didnt know what kind of pressure they need

 

I'll have to see if there are any big rig salvage yards around here. I have been looking for some horns that aren't $1200

 

Holy Crap! Seriously, I think I'd soil myself if that went off behind me.

 

Look at the 1180 kit under AirHornsofTexas.com Lot cheaper then 1200 for the same dual horn that Mack Truck uses, pluse you get compressue and tank.

 

I went straight to the K3LA with a real valve (Graham-White) and a nitrogen cylinder. No electrics on this one.

 

^ that is a serious setup there.^ lol

I picked up my set from http://www.hornblasters.com/
I got the conducter series with a 2.5 gallon compressor.

I mounted mine in the tool box and the horns directly underneath it. Everything is all mounted to the tool box. Pretty easy to remove if needed.

 

I only have a picture of some air horns I grabbed out of the scrap at work. Customer wanted them changed because the bolt mounts are kinda busted, I figured heck I'll clean them up and use them! Still need to get an air tank and compressor though.

They remind me of a medium/high pitch fire truck...they are quite loud for their size!
