Thanks guys. Yes he was looking for them, found the air tank but not the horns. That’s why I have the horn on a separate button I can still give them the weak horn without giving the horses a heart attack.
Feeling a little under the weather today but I took a couple pictures of the air setup. Its a little messy but I’m tying up the loose ends. The tank is just in front of the passenger side tire and the compressor is in the bed.
Nice truck and install!
Is it just me or does every single guy with a “Cummins” keep his ridiculous tow mirrors flipped up all the time to try and look cool?
I’ve got horses and my girl is big into barrel racing so between that and the travel trailer I got a trailer hooked up pretty much every day I’m not working and don’t feel like constantly flipping them back and forth.
I have to agree with cowboy. My trainer stays hooked up to a trailer. Wether its his 54’ horse trailer, 50’ cow stock trailer or the flatbeds. His mirrors don’t move.
You all know a lot about these setups so I have a question. When I fire the horns
The lowest tone takes longer to sound than the rest. I’ve triple checked and all the hoses from the split to the horns are the same length. Any ideas why it sounds later than the other 3?
Most likely the difference in tension on the diaphragms. The Shockers have a small allen screw on the back cap which pushes the diaphragm onto the seat. The more they’re screwed in, the higher the seal and pressure needed to sound them. It’ll also affect pitch. Angie, correct me if I’m wrong here, but mucking around with the screw voids your warranty as it can place undue stress on the internals if you have them too tight. They should already be adjusted right from the factory… but perhaps yours were either not quite the same or someone played with them.
If you’re not worried about the warranty angle… perhaps you can try loosening the late sounding horn just a little to see if you can get it in-line with the rest of them.
I agree with you here!! If you pull a trailer on a regular basis, fine. I know plenty of guys that never pull trailers and they have their mirrors flipped all the time Drives me crazy…
As to the OP, really like the install. Did you have to extend the leader hose of the compressor or does it go right down into the tank?
