Hornblasters

:ybrick:
I've recently gotten a hornblasters horn with a 2 gallon air compressor. Does anyone have this set up? We are having a hard time figuring out where to put the compressor. We really prefer to have it outside of the vehicle. It is a 2006 4runner sport with a V8 and 4WD. Help!

Hey good buy....what u want to do is this...first off for warranty purposes your compressor has to be mounted upright or they won't warranty it.. second on each corner of your rear bumper u will see what looks like something belongs there.e.g. your compressor. Of course u might need to make a bracket to mount it but thats where im putting mine once i get them. Also the intake line for the compressor use it. And run it inside the cab for cleaner moisture free air...hope it helps...let us know.

i saw someone put a huge air horn in place of the spare tire...maybe think about that. but that thing was huge...and having a spare is kinda important.

Spare Tire

:crybaby:
Yeah, we really don't want to give up the spare. There is a spot near the radiator, however, we are afraid that it will get too hot and damage from road garbage. You would be amazed at how little is availble in a search for this!

I've been googling as many key phrases as I can think of and not coming up with much!

No not the spare in the corner of the bumper.. the compressor is separate from the tank right?? Inside the bumper in the corner. U can make a 90degree plate with the compressor mounted on it...Damn if I had a pic..

It is one very large tank set up. It's all one piece.
It is this...

Oh crap it is mounted together. Well u can dismount the compressor n u might need a longer leader line n then u can mount the tank and the compressor in different places...damn even the thought of mounting that as a one piece is a nightmare no way..I will take a pic for u of the compressor location for u in the morning. Even i don't know where I'm gonna put my tank for my bags I've been deliberating for months.
