Thread: 12 volt military-like horn

  1. #1

    Default 12 volt military-like horn

    I am in the process restoration and I would like to install a military looking/sounding horn in the stock location. Is there a replacement out there that fits the bill?

    Google search for Roadrunner beep beep horn, and you should find several like this one,https://www.summitracing.com/parts/w...xoCWbIQAvD_BwE

    Does it sound like the military horn? I am not sure what the original sounded like anyway. A big truck with a weak horn does not sound good.

    The original M715 horn sounds kind of lame to me. At least mine does.

    Yes the stock horn makes the old beep beep sound. It's sounds kind of weak for such a big truck, but it's the same horn all the military vehicles used including the M38 Jeep. And it looks very similar to the horn I posted earlier.

    Sounds like the horns I remember hearing on the tv show MASH.
    Thanks for all the help!

    I was very disappointed in the stock horn... Running the stock horns off the 85 GMC engine donor and they're pretty wimpy too.

    Thinking of getting stock BMW horns... My wife's 328i sounds like a TRUCK.

    I've often said, my stock horn sounds just like the Plymouth Road Runner horn. Not very loud and a perfect "Beep Beep".
