Train horn (nathan airchime), air compressor and tank

[Trevor*]

I have some normal large air train horns from ebay. I will try to set these up with the Nathan P3 and the K3 and make a video to compare.

I'm curious to, I have the 240 kit. I mounted my horns in same location, but to the skid plate and sideways. I can drop the whole thing pretty easily and was able to mount them inside the house too, lol

^^^ Mine is the conductor's 240 as well. Will definitely put air horns on my next vehicle too haha

Just as an FYI, I had a nice set of train horns in my 2010. I purchased them from Train Horns of Texas, dealt with a guy there, Jason. Very knowledgeable. I mounted the horns to the beam directly in front of the spare and had a small tank under the passenger running board. I hooked the switch up for the compressor to the number one aux switch and the horn itself to the number two. Nice sounding, I took it off before I sold the truck. Not sure if I am going to install on the 2013 when it gets here.

I can't wait for one of you idiots to get pulled over and given a ticket.. I see someone blow one of those and I will report it. Just be advised that with cell phones you are going to get busted sooner or later...

Ah let them be, as long as they dont be ***** and intentionally cause an accident then it's all good.

intentionally cause an accident then it's all good.

Ahhhh I was not going to mention the fact that the insurance company that they will not cover an accident that they cause with the horn. Will also get the snot sued out of them.

I wish I had something more than stock and quite a bit less than air horns....something worthy of a Raptor.

1/8" thick aluminum. I used 1" x 1" angle for the P3 mount. I used 1" flat aluminum for the K3 mount because I added a second support to mount the other horn closer to the front to allow more room to get to the oil filter. I can't remember for sure, but I think there were holes already in the chassis I used to mount the aluminum. If you don't have the ability to tap a for a bolt, a large self tapping screw does work. I would still pre-drill first.

What horns are you going to mount?
