Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
Well I'm closing in on 100% complete with the Family Truckster. Must be time to sell..ha ha
I never got around to adding a horn to the Suburban. I never really missed not having one until I almost got backed into at a gas station. All I could do was yell which is not very effective.
I always had Train horns in mind as I already had the air supply piece with my air suspension. I also didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a horn.
I settled on one from Vixen that I grabbed off of Amazon. It arrived Saturday and after a few minutes I settled on a location. Under the floor on the driver side it was. I had to purchase a coupler fitting for my air tank to downsize to the 1/4" air line fitting. A power feed from the fuse panel and a ground and I was cooking with gas. It was a fun little Saturday afternoon project. I will grab a picture of it mounted later. The foot print was 14" x 6.75" x 6.5" which is not too bad for 4 horns.
I was surprise how loud this horn is. It sounds as good as I hoped that it would. This will be fun...
