Sounded like my Highschool band at graduation.

Absolutely beautiful melody will get they said 😂

That's what the General Lee sounded like after it went off on the big jumps and had a rough Landing😮

[commonsurvivor]

That's the lunch truck sound👍. It's a classic

[davidcook]

Looks like you got the chinees seat cover also. Awesome.

I got 4 off the top of a peterbuilt 379 under my 2500. 2 5 gallon tanks, half inch airlines and big 3/4" valves. Sounds like a train.

[BangBang-hkrg]

Perfect if you want to build the GENERAL BRUCE LEE

Dude fyi I have the same kit, it specifically says on the instructions.. DONT CHANGE THE LENGTH OF THE AIR LINES. They are short because the rubber lines expand and don’t keep pressure well. Mine works perfect. It’s because you extended the lines

[Chankajustdoes]

Ngl they have those hoses short for a reason… never had a problem with mine

[kadedoesanimation]

That’s not even a Dixie horn that’s just dix horn

[troymccarty]

In So Cal you just got everyone to come out of the shop. Roach coach is here!!

[Shiestey]

The Dixie horn is like one of the most iconic American sounds, and you went out and bought one from the chinese and it doesn’t work.. something poetic about that lmao

[MadMan_]

Pro tip, get urself just a normal 1990 f150 horn its perfect. Ive put them on a bunch of things even my lawnmower 😂😂😂

[MADMNK]

That will definitely make your truck better. Don't worry about all that rust or that leaky differental.

I've used WOLO brand horns on my motorcycles since the 90s. I have no idea if they're made in China, but probably they are, since everything else is! I pay about 30 bucks for the two horn kits, and they have ALL worked perfectly -- they're very loud. I usually replace the relay from the kit with a good quality one, and waterproof it with RTV. I then use clamps for the airlines, and run the shortest airlines possible. I think the best lines for these horns would be extra stiff braided stainless steel, but the regular ones seem fine for my short 2 inch run from the compressor to the Y junction, then 6 inches to one horn and 8 to the other.

In the case we're looking at in this video, i don't believe it's simply a cheap kit from China that is the problem. You may have a bad horn. Sometimes it's possible to troubleshoot for that kind of thing by temporarily swapping horns into different manifold outputs. Also there might be some benefit to tidying up the installation overall. I'm confused about this mounting location, too. On my motorcycle, I pretty much have to expose my horns to the elements, but a truck has a nice cozy compartment with a roof even! Why not mount your horns in the engine compartnent where they are protected from weather and also easier to mount and work on?

I hope something wonderful happens for you today!

[Razor_k]

yeah the Dixie horn is known for being difficult to setup. youd be better off buying a digital horn

[veritas]

"50 bucks? It probably super good and high quality" you deserve it

[AceWolff]

My uncle has this same shit set up on his mint 71 chevy. Monster lift, tires, really a beautiful truck. Then this garbage spews out of it.

[ChefBoyarDEEZ]

I have a single horn kit. Works great.

[Ryan_Carder]

Mine did the same thing.

Also, I'm in love with that switch board. Im just gonna install a dedicated air horn for a loud horn, and any other neat ones im going to rig up a soundboard with a pa speaker and put any customized sound i want.
