Air Horn Placement

[tntway]

got a crazy question for you guys with the under hood mounted BIG horns..... do you lose any volume or sound quality with them mounted under hood? i have hadley bullies mounted under the radiator... but i just got a 25" grover emergency and i may not be able to mount it in the same place..... thanks gang

TNT check out what I did with the JRE Heat shield.

Front engine Compartment

Side view engine compartment



Nice thing about it is that it's not exposed to the elements and is real loud and noticeable.

tntway,

How does the grover emergency sound? I had my hadley bullys mounted on the bumper support and my 35 inch tire had a bad introduction with them last nite. Broke one of the bells right off. So I am debating on replacing them with the same or different kind. Do you still have your bullys?

outlawram..... i just got it today so i havent had a chance to really investigate yet... . ya know--24 1/2" x 6" is really a good size horn.

ya dont realize untill ya se it and hold it in your hands... ill let ya know as soon as i figger it out.

You should be able to install that horn with little effort on the frame cross member, behind the bumper. I just finished putting two grovers on my truck in that location (24 1/2" and 21 1/2", 6 " bells). I used a piece of flat stock 1/8" steel to fabricate 3 simple brackets, one for the rear which supports both horns and two for the front, one for each pedestal . I have some pics. but just relaized that I can't post them in a reply ????I could put them up in the readers rigs section if you are interested.
