My brother has a '95 dodge dually, and he thinking of installing air horns. We were thinking of getting some airhorns off of a wrecked semi at a local junkyard. He does not want them on the roof, he wants them out of sight (probably under the bed or cab). But the compressor and tank he wants to buy new (He does not want to be stuck with a leaky tank or a broken mini compressor). My question is this, can we install this ourselves without any specialized tools? Also, where is good place to order the tank and compressor on the internet at a reasonable price? Where should we mount them? Are they a pain in the butt to install? Thanks everyone!

 

you are limited to a electric compressor, so after that you realy dont need tank. just buy compressor and run to horns. then use relay that is signaled by the stock horn wire.

 

To run semi horn u need a tank because it takes a little bit of preassure to make them work and the pump wont put out that much preassure it has to build it up.

 

You're not absolutley limited to electric, while that would be easiest there are belt driven compressors

 

Thanks everyone!! Anyone else?
