Cool to see this mod. I seen the original heater kit and the diagram that came with it. I bet those cost big bucks to have oem vintage parts such as those. I bet it’s a game changer to have those with the top.

Sure! Thanks for watching

Really nice install you never know it was in there. That's a lot of BTUs for no bigger than it is. Stay safe and give everybody a hug for me.

That is an efficient little heater, can't wait to see it tested. Good job Seth.

This is a really cool modern heater to retrofit into a vintage jeep. I had been looking for an original for years for a decent price. I finally found one. It is restored and mounts over the drivers feet. Should keep my feet warm. I am trying to keep everything 1945 and older.

Tight work,looks good! Should keep the icicles off of all in the cab!!? Lol!! Thanks for sharing 👍! 👍🧙‍♂️!

Just a thought, install water shutoffs for summer running.

Hi buddy how are ya? Oh man thank you for sharing this. I’ve removed the heater in 69 cj5, I’m gonna go to swinging peddles and break master on the fire wall. This lil heater will be perfect. The heater core looks to be about the same size but with a more efficient blower. I will mount mine like you did out of the way, but must make a bracket off the firewall inside as the glove box is fiber board. Thanks buddy! God bless you and the fam!!

Can't wait for a real winter review.

Yeah I’m not a fan of being cold so hopefully this helps!

Posted in perfect timing! I was wondering what im gonna do for heat for mine! Good video Seth!

With that little 4 banger I bet you will have to install an electric fan to get the radiator hot enough for that windy cab. Maybe not, but that little motor will take a long time to get hot in the extreme cold with the fan you have now spinning. Good luck.

The l134 makes more heat than it should. They always run hot. And are inherently thermally inefficient. It will heat just fine. I been running flat fenders with no top all year long forever so just having a top alone will be a massive improvement.

That is slick!!!

Awesome job! Looking forward to trying it out!

Great video! I'm always looking for better heater options to get out of the alaskan cold, definitely looking forward to more videos on this!

Yeah I’m excited to see how it performs. 👍

That’s a great solution, thanks for the video

This was excellent, you and low buck garage should get together and do a flat fender collab.

Awesome! Thank you for the video

It will be interesting to see how it works. I never saw a flat head jeep or early rig have a good heater. The engines dont put out much heat.

Hey I’m really interested in the top you made. Do you have any templates or measurements I could use. I’m about to attempt the same thing. Let me know thanks! As far as the heater that looks like a pretty good option for my Jeep. Thanks for making the video.

@@redeyecafegarage7484 it looked really nice. What size material did you start with if you remember? I found a canvas tarp at harbor freight that I think would be perfect for mine. There’s a 8x10 and a 10x12. I’m trying to figure out which size I should get. How did you start the project? Or where did you start first. I can’t find anything except where a guy did a half top. But I want a full top like yours and doors but don’t want to pay the big price that they cost. I think I can fudge my way through it but just need a few pointers. Thank again for any help on the subject.
