The Spare Tire Delete® Kit puts a Shocker XL train horn and a real onboard air system in the spot your spare tire used to hang.
Transform your vehicle's presence on the road with the Conductor's Special 232 Train Horn Kit. Priced with the discerning driver in mind, this kit is tailored to sync flawlessly with our innovative Spare Tire Delete Bracket. At its core is the Shocker XL train horn, emanating authentic, robust notes reminiscent of real train horns. Supported by a resilient 2-gallon air tank and the trusted HornBlasters 3Q air compressor, you're ensured 3-5 seconds of honk time, with a rapid recovery of under two minutes.
No more enduring lengthy installations. Our Spare Tire Delete Brackets, ideal for most full-size and mid-size trucks, revolutionize the setup process. By replacing the standard spare tire, these brackets facilitate a sleek installation, reducing time from an exhaustive 6-8 hours to a mere 3-4 hours.
Important Notes:
Driving is not just about reaching a destination-it's about the journey. And the Conductor's Special 244K Spare Tire Delete Kit is here to enhance that voyage. At the heart of this kit lies the Shocker XL train horn, crafted to capture the very essence of locomotive might.
Our Spare Tire Delete Bracket brings a fresh take on installation, prioritizing both function and form. This, combined with a Stealth Black 1NM Air Compressor and a dynamic 2-Gallon 6 Port Air Tank, positions the kit as a top-tier choice for enthusiasts.
Important Notes:
The entire kit replaces your spare tire and goes in as one pre-assembled unit that cranks up into place. Plan on about 3 to 4 hours instead of the usual 6 to 8.
Four fiberglass-reinforced ABS trumpets with stainless steel internals, from 12.75" to 19.5" long, on a 2-gallon tank. Three to five seconds of authentic locomotive honk per fill.
The same 150 PSI air system that honks the horn tops off your tires and runs small air tools. The 200 PSI liquid-filled gauge and the safety blow-off are in the box.
One recording of the Shocker XL at full pressure. No editing.
Phone speakers undersell it. Earplugs ship with the Medium-Duty kit for a reason.
Real customer installs. Swipe through.
Hundreds more builds across trucks, vans, semis, boats and more. Search it for your own year, make and model.
The horn, the bracket, the tank, the plumbing and the install are identical on both kits. What changes is the compressor, and with it how fast the tank refills between honks and how much red power wire the kit needs.
| Kit | Compressor | Refill Time | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Medium-Duty232 | 3Q | 1 min 33 sec | |
| Heavy-Duty244K | 1NM Stealth Black | 35 sec |
Both kits hold the same 2 gallons and both give you 3 to 5 seconds of honk. Refill is how long the compressor takes to put the air back, measured from 110 PSI up to 150 PSI.
The Medium-Duty takes about 1 minute 33 seconds. The Heavy-Duty takes about 35 seconds. If you honk the horns a lot, or you air up tires often, that gap is the whole reason to step up.
The Heavy-Duty runs the 1NM Stealth Black compressor, which draws 25 amps and needs 22 ft of 8-gauge red power wire. The Medium-Duty runs the 3Q at 20 amps on 10-gauge.
Both kits ship with an air line cutter and earplugs. The difference between the two boxes is the compressor and the power wire gauge.
The kit ships as individual components and assembly onto the bracket is required.
