A freakin stupid jealous driver, did a hit and run on my truck. It was very sad, but I truly believe was goes around comes around!

THis is the 3rd time my truck has been hit by a stupid driver! and I am gettin tired of rebuilding it!! I am still hard core and will just keep moving on! It just set me back more time and money again.

I got my train horns in from http://www.suicidedoors.com/. It took a while to install because I took my time and had to make some trick brackets because i wanted to mount them up front.

I got the idea from AVTekk , Streets finest from S10 Forum. I like the way their setups were, so i wanted mine as clean as theirs and I wanted them to be hidden also behind the billet grill. I ran into a prob. when I found out that My truck has a power steering coolant lines up front. But that didn't stop me. And since I took out my AC, the condenser was gone which left some room. I trimed the Hood latch support bracket a little and they fit snug behind the grill and envoy bumper, you can't even tell they are there.

I made the upper and lower brackets out of one piece alum. I made some speed holes in the upper bracket just to get a little more air to the rad. Instead of the valve that came with the kit I ran a 3/8 SMC with 3/8 airline(from SD) back to my tank. I mounted the valve as close as I could get it. I am running them off of my rear bags air tank at @ 145psi.

I froze my butt off puttin these babies on, but it was all worth it, these puppies so F$$KN LOUD I am a very happy minitrucker with my new toy! So the next time someone cuts me off or almost hits me they get blasted!!
Let me know what you all think.
