M35A2 heater kit install tips

I hope Joe doesn't mind, but I hi-jacked this off the MilVeh list, it was too good to pass up for those installing a heater:

<<<<<<with the heater

Good research Lance! I have the first one saved on my laptop form when Mighty Joe posted it originally. Doubt that I'll ever install heat in any of my rides but its good to have. Also, the legs to mount the heat on multifuels are being reproduced by John Tennis. I just don't have his email here.

ahh, yeah, no need for heat down there here's the Spruce Mountain page with the bracket:

that's something I can probably make pretty easily, though that is a nice piece.

Yeah, Spruce Mountain carries all of John Tennis' stuff. Those are his brackets!

When you do the job consider to rotate the heater 90 degree so the air inlet hose face down and can be conected to a hole that you can make to the triangular fixed panel under the hood side panel. This will make your truck look like the very late Deuces but most of all will keep the round profile of the air inlet hose. I didn't do that and I regret it. Also TM 9-2320-209-35 has lots of information and pics on all kinds of winterization kits. It's June 1965 (my birthday) and not provited by LOGSA.

I have it I think John Tennis (51 993-2700 email: jatonka@telenet.net

An example of TM 9-2320-209-35

Does that mean that the blower motors on the water heater fans is 12V?

hey, thanks for the pics stefos! big help
well, that seals it, I ordered the NOS kit from Saturn today. A big chunk out of my wallet, but I need heat! I was going to wait for spring when Joe YOung could try to assemble a kit for me, but I really wanted the NOS one, and ASAP. So, I bit the bullet. Will be sure to take lots of pics of the install and post them in an article

BTW, when I talked to Jay at Saturn yesterday, he said they only had one or two kits left, that they had benn FLYING out of there. So, if you want one better hurry! Other than saturn I think Tomlin surplus was the only other place I found the kit, but I never called to see if they were in stock there

Heater bracket kits are in stock at sprucemtsurplus.com
