Jay H. gave this 1993 Dodge Ram D350 a cleaner, more functional setup by installing the HornBlasters Spare Tire Delete® Kit in the factory spare tire location underneath the rear of the truck. The kit is a straightforward upgrade that frees the OEM spare mounting area, making room for custom exhaust, air-suspension components, onboard air, or other modifications that need the extra space.
It also helps clean up the underbody while providing a secure way to remove the factory spare tire assembly. 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—so the same spare-well platform can host a full train horn system when you are ready.
Whether the goal is performance, customization, or extra clearance, Jay’s D350 is a strong example of how the Spare Tire Delete Kit can make future upgrades easier. HornBlasters notes the kit ships as individual components (assembled photos are for illustration) and is designed for most full-size pickups. On a 1993 first-gen Ram, confirm spare-hanger geometry, fuel tank, and exhaust routing against the current instructions before you order.
