horn placement with a 26 inch radiator vs 22

[vabchmopar]

I am restoring a 69 dodge charger and during the process I changed the radiator support (no not the part with the vin) but the correct structure that dodge would have put in if you ordered a 26 inch radiator from the factory. My question is were the horns different, maybe a different mounting bracket if you selected that option. And if so does anyone have a picture of how the factory mounted them and the relay with a 26 inch radiator in the car. Thank you

I dont think so,I installed a 26 in the Bee,was 22 and no problem installing the horns.

I would like to think that Mopar was smart enough to design a vehicle where horn placement wouldn't be a issue with whatever radiators installed! JMHO

Do you a picture of your bee, all 4 inches that are needed for the larger radiator are taken from the passenger side. That puts the horns in the way of the rad shroud. I would love to see ia picture with the two horns and the relay mounted from the factory

I can get some tomorrow. I bought the brackets to add my 26 inch radiator

The horns and relay are all the same between the 22 and 26 inch radiators.

I swapped out a 22" for a 26" pass side yoke and reused the hardware I removed from the original. The new metal had marks and holes where the horn threaded boss went. Nothing special was used.

Still looking for a picture of the horns and relay installed on a 69 B body with a 26 inch radiator and the rad shroud installed. Thank you
