Awesome! It is super fun to have the pull chain. It allows you to control the air flow and sound unlike the on/off action of a solenoid. Thanks for watching the vid!

4:30 You're gonna want stuff like this to just be on when the truck's on, so just run a wire from the 86 (switched) post on the solenoid to an accessory circuit and let your key be the switch. One less thing to forget. Also one less thing to break.

Love that old Dodge. I think you need another horn to pair with it, maybe a lower register to truly get that big rig honk, lol

the_eddies It would be cool to have a second horn but would eat up all the extra space on the passenger side of the engine bay. Maybe there is another spot it could be hidden. I will mention it to Big Block and see what he thinks. Thanks for watching!

kolbey bowen The lanyard valve is a Wolo 803-LV. The cheapest I have seen it is on ebay for around $17 with chain, it is also available on Amazon. The link between the chain and valve is weak as seen at the end of the vid but it is easily replaced with any keychain style ring.

The compressor has a built-in pressure switch. The setup works well and the air delivery is pretty consistent.

@eastbayhounds7604
@eastbayhounds7604 4 жыл бұрын
The pull switch is a simple air valve so all you need is a line running into it from the compressor and the outgoing line goes straight to the horn. You just push the lines on and tighten the metal collars to hold them in place. The part is: Wolo 803-LV. I hope that answers you question, if you have any others feel free to ask!

Would you be able to add a pull valve to any Vixen horn set up? Replacing the button with a pull valve is what I mean
@eastbayhounds7604
@eastbayhounds7604 Жыл бұрын
I am not familiar with the Vixen horn. If there is a valve attached to the horn itself it would need to somehow be bypassed or stuck in the open position. The pull valve will work with any setup as long as it is the only valve in the air line between the air tank and horn.

@eastbayhounds7604 3 жыл бұрын
The setup uses 1/4” O.D. nylon air line. It is the same type used for air brakes on a big rig. You can find it on Amazon and at many auto parts stores.
