Love it. Did a similar mod but used a relay to tie the air horn to the truck's factory horn. The relay requires one of the upfitter switches to be on for the air horn to sound. So when I'm on the highway, I keep that upfitter switch on so pressing the regular horn button on the steering well gets me the air horn. Just makes it easier. Nice job!!
Okay I watched this at least a dozen times. Ill tell you what I know but know i don't know it all. I have two Viair 444c compressors, they go through a water separator then my 1.5 gallon tank. I highly recommend the separator as my tank is always dry. Get an air regulator and dial down the PSI, the lower the PSI to the horn the longer the horn will last. Buy a new air hose now, or better yet make one using flexzilla 1/4 ID hose. Those yellow coil hoses crack in cold weather, ya know when....just when you need it. Finally your QWORK solenoid, will last about a year, I have a WOLO 846 horn(think fire engine)It doesn't come with a solenoid either. I'm using a HRS valve purchased on Amazon and i love it. Well good luck, I've enjoyed your video.
We have had a system from Viair mounted in our truck bed for a few years. It has completely eliminated our need for gas station compressed air. Awesome!
Have y'all had any issues with mounting your Viair system in the bed? I have a 2019 Silverado 1500 and I want to install a Viair system in my truck. I have been thinking about putting mine in my truck bed underneath my tonneau cover/camper shell. Any suggestions?
I mounted a Viair system. On thing I added was a water separator between the compressor and tank. That way you tank never sees moisture. I found it graves a good amount of water. I mounted it in the outboard on the frame. Good insurance.
Great work, my only suggestion is Riv Nuts in place of self tapping screws. After the discussion of the pump being removable self tapping screws are not the route to go. Bit of a bummer with the level of fabrication and tig welded brackets to fasten them with self tappers
I've been looking at horns for quite some time. When I finally decide on which way I would like to go, I'll be installing it in the bed of our truck. There is so much road grime here especially in the winter.......it just wouldn't last under there.
Marc. We have had on board air and air bags in two different HD trucks now. Wouldn’t ever own a truck without. Still no air horn but the air is priceless either way. Additionally a rubber chair foot protector works as a great option to cover your quick connect hose connections when traveling. Various sizes and colors available at hardware stores or on Amazon and cheap lasting solution.
This was really fun to watch. I don't know how you do it, but you really make me feel like I'm right there having some laughs with the guys. Thank you for that.
I soooo want a horn, I'm so tired of being cut off without a way to YELL. But there's no way I can do this myself, thanks, I will chat it up with my local garage after watching you do this.....Still very entertaining and far better than the Super Bowl...... Thanks so much for doing this, how about telling us where that garage is - heck might be worth a trip up there just to have 'em put my horn in.
Kleinn Air has great easy-install air horn kits with mounts designed specifically for GMC/Ford/Chevy etc trucks without needing to customize/fabrication!
Hey Mark, on a big rig, we had a cable that ran down to the air tank's, you can drain your tank without crawling under the truck, something to check and see if you can do that to your pickup.
For my horn I used an air ride suspension solenoid, but that was back in 2003 when the Lowrider mini trucks were popular. They were a lot easier to find.
I noticed a brass fitting being used as a connection point for an air quick connect at the rear of the truck box. Be advised that if your truck is aluminum and you used a brass fitting or even a galvanized steel fitting, the aluminum will react and eventually degrade the point of connection.The dissimilar metals need to be isolated from direct contact.
Well I do not know about the kids and wife, but I feel better as a neighbor, having an pnbpsrd air compressor and horn has always been my dream, my day-dream forever. I sat and watched the whole show. Thank you for share. Say hi to kids from neighbors in Canada......Osoyoos B. C. NICE TO SEE CARSONS O.K. WATCHING OUR LITTLE KINGDOM COME. CAROLYN❤
Mark, you have a great sense of humor. I could imagine your voice sounding like a giddy school girl when you were asked if you had an air compressor. Great video. Thanks
Just an FYI for those watching - That truck is a 2022, not 2023 :) Marc, had the same experience with the air compressor. Sitting on top of Logan Pass in Glacier after our hike and some asked if I had an air compressor. I said, well, yes I do. It wasn't on board, but still had the Viair!
@@ryanhessler8966 Bumper, grill, side panel step, dash and sync 4, console, tailights, tailgate. All different :) 22 is a unicorn. The only one with a 12" screen and that dash.
Nice video! Nothing g like having access to a break and a shear for a project like this! I have to say though that your horn has a much better tone (IMO) than Randy’s!
Super Bowl on KYD Sunday. NFL is out of touch. I would recommend an extension hose for the tank drain valve. Also add a hose connector near the front of the truck. Nice install. Thank you for sharing and have a great day.
Any concern those self tapping screw heads wearing a hole in your spare? On mine, I put a couple of 1x3 sq tubing across the bottom of the frame, also at the spare. My dual viair pumps are mounted to the top of them, and a piece of sheet metal extends forward, so where your tank is on the side and won't completely drain, on mine the legs are under it, and the tank drain is truly in the bottom of the tank.
@@KeepYourDaydream When my 2017 death wobbled I replaced my factory stabilizer with a Fox Racing adjustable unit that bolts in place of the factory unit. No issues with it but I really like that Bilstein setup.
Hi guys- looking forward to a new season. What's going on with the Florida house? I selfishly like your rving the middle of the country and west because I'm familiar with the east coast since we're in Western NC. Can't wait to hear where you're taking the new Airstream...need to introduce her to a LOT of places!
Did I miss something? What happened to the old horn and compressor? With all the road salt we have here in the winter, my old compressor took a beating and the thin tray it was installed on rusted out. This looks like a much better solution. Safe travels
This is much better than the Super Bowl. I have a question why do you have stock shocks on that truck and how come they didn’t put a spray liner on a platinum ? I have a lariat it’s got spray liner on it from Ford.
Spray in bed liner is an option you can choose. It is not an automatic add, except for certain packages ( I think Black Appearance Package and maybe sport). I have ordered two trucks in the past handful of years and both I chose to not go the Ford liner route. Many reports of the Ford Liner peeling off. Better off with an aftermarket one such as Line X.
@@OutdoorsEngineer well I bought a 2016 brand new ultimate lariat it had that same liner and you just talked about line X and I have a 2019 now that is a gasser cause I’m done dealing with the smog on the diesels and it has it in it as well here Corning Ford that’s what they put in their trucks so I don’t know where you’re buying yours from but I’m just kind of surprised but you’re shocks they’re only good for around 30,000 miles. You might want to go with Bill Steen and your stabilizer I’ve been told to stick with stock or fox friend of mine that does front end here in Redding is the best in the state that’s what he recommends
We are going to purchase a 27 Globetrotter this May. I have a GMC Sierra 1500 AT4 that has a 9200lb towing capacity. I am being told that anything over 25 feet should have a 2500HD Truck. Thoughts? Many are telling us stopping is the bigger issue?
Just a thought! Wouldn't you want the Air Compressor in the engine compartment, where you can get to it easier and it is not directly getting splashed on. Viaair must make extension lines for it. Great Video, Thanks for Sharing!
Excellent 'critiquing' on you * trio gentlemen to do the mechanical know how, do how & show how💯. Trish the good narrative on parts (video 😉) & Mark being "all hands on deck" 🤜🤛
I added a grand general triple trumpet horn just above the drive shaft on my f250. I used rivet nuts through the cross member frame. Very sturdy, and plenty of room.
Much as I love football, not watching the Super Bowl. This is much more entertaining & informative.❤ Glad to see you're not in Flagstaff with all the snow (grandson goes to NAU & he & his bicycle are buried in snow.) Question - you guys always manage to find the greatest people to work on your RV & truck. What's your secret? We don't have that good of luck, even with word of mouth or personal experiences🤷♀️. Just curious. Thanks.
Randy and Scott are great. I only came to FL for wrap up a couple projects. Trish and Charlie are dealing with all that snow. I'm headed back tomorrow. At least it's melting!
I've been wanting to do this for awhile, but will pay somone, however, did I hear correctly, that the air compressor comes with it's own gauge and on/off switch, so that if you don't have upfitter switches (F-150), you can use the included parts instead?
Yes, it does, but the switch isn't great. I should have talked about it. I'd look into an OEM switch. A good shop can place in the dash. Or you can create a relay to make your normal horn work regular or air depending on the switch.
Yes, he is. I'll ping him about how new customers can get in touch. That has been difficult. One man show, but the new facility should mean more capacity.
It's the same as a truck horn, which are all over the road. Not sure if the rules are different for commercial semi's. It's really not that loud, but it didn't replace the regular horn so discretion can be used. For us, it's more of a fun hello and goodbye toot.
Not keen on drilling holes in metal and not protecting the raw edge. I would have used all stainless mounting hardware and done something different than using self tappers. Otherwise great video.

Was looking forward to watching this way more than the stupid bowl!
I tried to watch.
@@KeepYourDaydream KC has been there so many times in the last 6 or 7 years. I just didn't feel the need to watch reruns.
Love that last story about assisting by having an air compressor , cool and calm, yeah I have one vs Wait Till you See This! Hysterical
Always good to see Marc and so good to see Randy and Scott again! Great job guys! My preferred half time entertainment.

Add on for a situation. Put a sensor on each side of the truck. When someone cuts you off the air horn goes off.
Super Bowl on KYD Sunday. NFL is out of touch. I would recommend an extension hose for the tank drain valve. Also add a hose connector near the front of the truck. Nice install. Thank you for sharing and have a great day.
What about heat from the exhaust that is next to the compressor tank?
I was wondering that
I so loved this! Now i want one for my jeep!
I've got an ARB dual compressor on my truck. Probably overkill for filling RV tires, but a good choice for Jeep tires if you air down and need volume.
keep the clips coming
I truly enjoyed this video. Thanks guys.........
Thanks for the info!
10/17ths is a new one on the imperial scale! That was the nightlight of this video 😂
I need to get that metric cresent wrench. They are hard to find. I heard they are next to the blinker fluid.

Does the factory stabilizer remain when the dual Bilsteins are installed?
Yes, it's a bolt on kit. There is actually no OEM horizontal stabilizer. I'm looking to replace my Icon kit as I think this is better.

Is this old footage? There was as shot of the bed showing fifth wheel ball hitch and the bed is missing all the add on's that were done. I'm confused.

Would you guys consider a wind turbine generator as a back up power source? Random but I always wanted to ask you guys that.
You should have remote mounted your drain valve. So that you can get to it easier.
Is that a Chestatee ford tag. My backyard
Thanx, great video.
SuperBowl is back on love . I’ll be out in a minute kyd is on.
Id put a relay in to use the air horn with the horn button on steering wheel.
Unfortunatley this is DIY with 2 seasoned mechanics + fabrication shop lol
Trying to add horn to my F250. I was hoping your video would show where to mount the horn. Maybe I missed it.
I added a grand general triple trumpet horn just above the drive shaft on my f250. I used rivet nuts through the cross member frame. Very sturdy, and plenty of room.
It starts around 16:24. It sorta looks like it neatly or under the engine bay, I may’ve missed if they mentioned where they were attaching it.
When did you get a new truck? How are sir bags operated?

Hey Marc, I used to live in Dahlonega, GA, where Chestatee Ford dealership is located…that’s funny, is that where you purchased your truck from??
That's Randy's truck.
Why can't add-on airhorns 🎺be plug-n-play? Tricia; "Nooooo, Every RVer would have one, and arriving & leaving RV parks would drive me insane!" 🤣

I honestly wouldn't mount it under the truck cause of rust, road debris, and if any major damage could happen

Yes, he is. I'll ping him about how new customers can get in touch. That has been difficult. One man show, but the new facility should mean more capacity.
It's a shame you couldn't mount the horn under the drivers door between the rocker panel and the frame rails.
Wait this is a NEW truck !? You guys got a new truck . The grille is different from the old truck !
That's Randy's truck. I should have included that in the intro.
New truck?
Not Marc's truck, it a friend's truck, which he mentioned in the video.
With that horn approaching 145 dB, it is not legal for use on FL roads, along with many other states.
It's the same as a truck horn, which are all over the road. Not sure if the rules are different for commercial semi's. It's really not that loud, but it didn't replace the regular horn so discretion can be used. For us, it's more of a fun hello and goodbye toot.
You should have worked for the railroad 🤣
You haven't arrived until you have a builtin air compressor.
Mark,
Take a look at the catalytic converter shot at 20:02 minutes in. It looks like a saw cut.
So what is with the old re-runs?
Not Mark's truck. Doing this for a friend, this is a new project.
Not keen on drilling holes in metal and not protecting the raw edge. I would have used all stainless mounting hardware and done something different than using self tappers. Otherwise great video.
Not for me, this episode. When will you guys get back to camping? :D
When winter is done :)
While this system looks nice, an 18V digital inflator is $50-100 and can be moved when necessary. That’s what I do; it’s a lot more economical.
Those won't run an air horn.
Haha. Valid point.
