Horn Upgrade

[Forum Crawler]

Supertones sound awful, the stock jeep horns are much better and deeper

The OEM JL/JT horns are Fiamma (made in USA too). They are decent.

BUT... Sometimes, you really need to let someone know you’re sharing the road with them. Or maybe you have a 4 legged visitor in camp who needs to vamoose.

So I added some Hella goodness. 5 horns total now should do the trick.

Hella air horn compressor mounting. Used an existing OEM M8 1.25 thread stud there at the fender and added a coupler - voila!

Here’s a better shot of the bracket and the revised air hose routing for anyone trying to do this mod on a JL or JT. The horns are red, you'll need to paint them to hide them behind the grill.

What's the temp rating on that tubing? It's awfully close to the radiator

We're going to find out!

Fortunately, it's in front where it gets max airflow and does not rest on any radiator components (there's a good 2-3 inches of distance/airspace there between the tubing and the radiator) so there is zero chance of heat transfer via conduction. It should be just fine.

I upgraded mine with two Hella horns and a y cord off amazon.
