    Alternative Cab Heater Opions / Options

    I priced out FFH as I had one in my Unimog 421 years ago and the least expensive unit I found was $995.00! Thanks for the suggestion on multiple cores, never thought of that! !

    Sorry for the late in posting my picks for the new heater, had been down with some health issues. I plugged my truck into the 1200W block heater last week, when it was 17 degrees, of course the truck started on a half a crank, took it for a ride and I had great heat in the cab. Here are some...

    Thanks to Jarhead, I finally finished the installation of my new in-the-cab heater. Using a 15 amp in line fuse, I wired it to the existing OEM switch. I used the passenger and driver's defroster ducts and this unit blows much better than the Hunter OEM. But the test will be in another month...

    New heater arrived today. Hope to install it over the next couple of days. I work slow! The radiator shop is repairing the OEM heater core at no charge. Hope to sell the entire OEM unit and recoup some of the new heater's cost. Will post the installation pics.

    Thanks again, just priced them online and for $40.00 shipped it may be an alternative. I am wondering if the hose connection holes in the core enclosure would need modification?

    Thanks for the suggestions. Just think no matter how well you protect the heater core inside that huge inefficient heater assembly, itit going to be problematic.

    I would like to reach out to other members who have replaced the OEM Cab Heater / Defroster with an aftermarket 24v unit. I have seen a few online, but don't want to reinvent the 5 ton wheel. Thanks very much!
