Train Horns - what and where to buy??

[cdog]

I put the viair system on my truck with a constant 150 psi. It was a bitch to run all the plumbing and find room for the air tank. They put all the bungs in the wrong place seeming how you want to hide the tank under the bed. Air horn is next. Ebay seems to have some of the best deals out there. But don't waist your money unless you do a good pump and tank system.

And dont believe the bull that the guys on Ebay say about how easy it is to mount, make sure you have alot of room!!! These horns are big! IE short bet f250 is a real nightmare to mount.

I ended up going with an Air-Zenith pump. 200psi, 2.65cfm free flow. It's a little more money than the Viair pumps, but moves more CFM. I am also plumbing my system to run an air gun for those pesky trailer/truck flats.

I've always wanted to put one in my truck. Are they illegal?

They are illegal as all hell....add to the fact that they scare the living SHIT out of people who are not expecting them, and you also are libel for the results. Yes, you can and SHOULD be sued for whatever happens. I can just imagine one of you losers running out to the river, you come up on a car doing 55-, maybe 60, and you lay into that thing....turns out its grandma and grandpa heading out to visit the grandkids for the weekend..but you can't tell the difff.....so you light them up with your horn...you startle the old man so bad he loses control of the car, rolles it a few times, kills them both. Good for you , dipshit. this whole thing of putting them on cars and trucks has GOT to be cracked down on, you LE guys listening?? Train horns are not toys, but using them for your fun is just as dumb as it gets.....
