yanking the pos heater

NotSoPC · 02-23-2012, 03:47 PM

So I am pulling out the whole heater set up and don't have a book. I just need to know what and were the bolts are to get it lose. Its going in the trash when done so I don't care if it gets busted up doing so. Thinking right not about just using the swazall on it.

I think there was a video of Shorty ripping one out in about 13 seconds.

Maybe hit him up for some pointers.

why pull it out? if you solve a couple few issues, they will run you out of the truck they get so hot!

If you can clean it thru a hole just pull it clean it and new heater core and don't work it under a tree and it works great.

Motor is

and the PO painted over the controls. Whole thing is junk. Got one to put in its place that I got from summit. Also going to block off the vent in the cowling.

Haha I plan on keeping the dash it when I remove mine. Sawzall and some junk blades should work. Being doing it as soon as I am done with the front toy axle.
