Vehicle 2020 Dodge Ram 2500 Laramie

Bryan L. gave his 2020 Dodge Ram 2500 Laramie a cleaner, more aggressive look by installing the HornBlasters Spare Tire Delete® Kit in the factory spare tire location. The kit opens up valuable space under the truck, making it a strong upgrade for enthusiasts planning an onboard air system—or anyone who simply wants a more streamlined undercarriage on a heavy-duty Ram.

Mounted where the spare used to hang, this upgrade enhances the truck’s overall look and prepares it for additional modifications down the road. The Spare Tire Delete® Kit configurator pairs HornBlasters’ 14-gauge powdercoated spare-delete bracket with a complete Conductor’s Special package: the Shocker XL train horn (one four-bell horn), a 2-gallon six-port tank, and either the 3Q compressor on Medium-Duty HK-S4-232-STDK or the constant-duty 1NM compressor on Heavy-Duty HK-S4-244K-STDK. Both tiers run at 150 PSI with 110 PSI restart and roughly 3–5 seconds of honk time.

Whether the goal is improved accessibility, added clearance, or a cleaner undercarriage, the Spare Tire Delete Kit is a popular choice for Ram owners looking to take their build to the next level. HornBlasters notes the kit ships as individual components (the assembled photos are for illustration), and the bracket is designed for most full-size pickups—confirm fitment on the product page before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Spare Tire Delete® Kit is a complete HornBlasters package, not just a bare bracket: the 14-gauge spare-delete bracket, Shocker XL train horn, 2-gallon six-port tank, compressor (3Q or 1NM depending on tier), valve, gauge, air line, wiring, fittings, and hardware. Bryan L.’s 2020 Ram 2500 Laramie uses that spare-well recipe for a cleaner undercarriage and a platform ready for serious onboard air.

Bryan’s copy does not name a SKU. On the product page, Medium-Duty (Quiet & Light Pneumatic Use) is HK-S4-232-STDK with the HornBlasters 3Q compressor. Heavy-Duty (Quick & Moderate Pneumatic Use) is HK-S4-244K-STDK with the constant-duty 1NM compressor. Both include the Shocker XL, a 2-gallon tank, and the spare tire delete bracket, and both are listed at 150 PSI with about 3–5 seconds of honk. Pick Heavy-Duty if you also want faster recovery for tires or light tools.

HornBlasters designs the Spare Tire Delete bracket for most full-size pickups, and Bryan’s Laramie shows the factory spare location working as intended: more clearance, easier access, and a cleaner underbody. The kit is not 100% plug-and-play on every vehicle—HornBlasters specifically calls out extra modification on some 2020–2021 Chevy/GMC trucks. Confirm Ram 2500 winch-style spare hardware, exhaust routing, and ground clearance against the current instructions before you drill or hang the assembled ~40 lb package.

No. HornBlasters notes that assembled photos are for illustration only. The Spare Tire Delete® Kit ships as individual components; you assemble the bracket, tank, compressor, and Shocker XL per the included instructions. Plan on roughly 3–4 hours with the spare-delete bracket versus 6–8 hours for a comparable frame-rail layout without it.

Classic Spare Tire Delete® hangs the Conductor’s Special stack on the 14-gauge bracket where the spare used to live—great for Bryan-style HD Rams that want a proven spare-well install and 2-gallon 232/244K air. Stealth Spare Tire Delete tucks a lower-profile package into the well for extra ground clearance. Compare both pages if ride height or off-road clearance is the deciding factor.
