If so, where did you mount this one, or any other train horn kit???

Thanks for the help!!!

 

This is the kit I have:

Except I went with a 1 gallon tank because it was easier to mount. The kit your looking at only has a 120 PSI compressor. I would recommend going with a system with at least 150 PSI compressor. Spend a little more and you will be a lot happier.

I monted my horns side ways (facing the pass side) between the front crossmember and the bumper.




I monted my compressor behind the drivers side headlight.


And I mounted the tank near the air cleaner.

 

How did you mount everything, welding I'd assume. That is my only drawback to this mod, I have yet to learn to weld.

 

where did you mount the tank?

 

No...no welding at all. I made brackets out of angle iron for the horns and compressor....then bolted them to existing holes and then bolted the pieces to them.

The tank is between the air cleaner and the radiator support...see it now?


Its a small 1 gallon tank, but its still plenty of big enough for the horns. If you were going to use the air system for anything else (air tools, to inflate tires, or air bags) I would go with a bigger tank though.

Now that it is done I wish I would have listened to the guy and went with atleast this kit (have a hard head)

Although my horns are plenty loud and I can get a good 3-4 second blast out of them the extra tank capacity and 20-30 psi would make a huge differance. Anything more than alittle chirp kicks the compressor on with only a 3 liter tank.

 

Thanks for the info, and definately like to hear how people like their set up and how it works....

 

I've heard them and they sound good for the money, but if you want sumthin REALLY loud, pickup a Nathan K-Series
