KTRON Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Fellow Truckers,My brothers and I, are looking to purchase a set of Air Horns for our Dad (for Christmas)He has a 2004 crew-cab Ford F250. The stock horn is so whimpy for the size of vehicle that it is.We have purchased an electric air compressor which will be mounted between the frame rails.I believe it is rated for 100psi, it was originally an electric pancake compressor for a nail gun.We are looking for a big truck sound from the air horns.What is a good place to buy these horns, and what do you guys recommend?Thanks,Chris Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/16393-air-horns-what-are-your-recommendations/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhasler Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 If you have a Mack dealership that treats you right you might be able to order that part through them, since Hadley is a Mack vendor. You might be able to get it a bit cheaper than from other outlets. Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!"
